Widening Arches Meet Modern Needs in Parliament
Reading
The Duma had a meeting and supported a plan. The plan is to make doors wider in their building. It passed unanimously after discussion with the members.
The Duma leader, Volodin, talked about the building. He said it was built in the 1930s. He noted that people were hungry back then and thin.
The building's doors were designed for thin people. This was because people did not eat much food. Now, they need wider doors for bigger people.
A member named Kruglov had a problem. He could not enter the building one day in 2025. He had celebrated a holiday and could not fit.
Kruglov had to use a back door to enter. This door was for deliveries, not people. Now, the Duma wants money to make all doors wider.
