Among those admitted, representatives of the Far East predominate — 37 people, the following five regions are in the lead in terms of the number of students: Khabarovsk Region (9 people), Moscow (6 people), Primorsky Region (5 people), the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) (5 people) and the Republic of Buryatia (4 people).

"There is such a job - to serve Russia, to serve the development of the Far East and our North. This is interesting and promising work. Perhaps, not all of you will reach the final. But the strongest, those who overcome themselves, will be able to take the path of service. The most important thing that you gain in this program is a community of like-minded people, which includes not only graduates of previous classes, but also all who serve today, work for the benefit of the development of the Far East and the Arctic," the head of the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East Alexey Chekunkov said to the cadets.
