Mr. Vyacheslav Krivonogog, leader (ataman) of the stanitsa says to Rossiiskaya Gazeta that the Cossack movement in the region is getting ever stronger. The members of the movement, all of them descendants of Cossacks from other parts of Russia, have now joint forces in the creation of the northernmost ever Cossack village. The village is located in the Taimyrski municipal rayon, a part of the Krasnoyarsk Kray. -Now, our main task is to bring up our young people in a patriotic spirit, ataman Andrey Voronin says. He also confirms that his fellow Cossacks assist regional law enforcement authorities in patrolling the coast of the Taimyr Peninsula, as well as islands along the coast of the Arctic Ocean.
