🇷🇺🤝☪️🕋 — Kommersant reports that the governor of Russia’s Stavropol region, Vladimir Vladimirov, proposed making the Muslim festival Eid al-Adha a public holiday, citing the region’s multi-faith population and existing recognition of Orthodox observances.
🇷🇺🤬 An online vote was launched and reportedly showed strong initial support, but the initiative drew criticism from nationalist and conservative commentators.
📝 Following the backlash, authorities halted the vote, with Vladimirov saying the issue had sparked a “heated debate” and required further discussion before any decision is made.
