Two more senior Russian officials will visit the Middle Urals before the election of the governor of the Sverdlovsk region. Thus, the intentions of vice-premiers Vitaly Mutko and Dmitry Rogozin to take part in the events in the region.

September 5 Vitaly Mutko will take part in the inauguration of the Kalininets sports complex, which will become one of the training bases of the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

Dmitry Rogozin will come to Nizhny Tagil to take part in the festival "UralTank", which will replace the armament exhibition Russia Arms Expo. The festival is timed to the Day of the tankman.

It is curious that both visits will be held on the eve of the election of the governor, scheduled for September 10. It is possible that high-ranking officials will express support for Yevgeny Kuyvashev - a candidate agreed by President Vladimir Putin. Last week in the Sverdlovsk region worked as Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak, Minister of Construction and Housing Mikhail Men and Transport Minister Maxim Sokolov.
