Keeping a Heritage

According to the organizers, the forum is aimed at strengthening Russian-Serbian relations, and the key task of the event was to gather young historians, political scientists, scientists, cultural and public figures within the framework of the project, forming a community of opinion leaders who understand the importance of maintaining a common historical memory and ready to engage in historical education of youth in their countries.

BelSU was represented by students of the Department of International Tourism and Hospitality at the Institute of Economics and Management Maria Kokhanova, Arthur Torosyan and Maria Shakalova. Within the framework of academic mobility, students will visit the University of Belgrade this year.

A full program was waiting for all participants: a visit to the Embassy of the Republic of Serbia in the Russian Federation and a meeting with the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Serbia to the Russian Federation Slavenko Terzic, as well as an excursion to the State Duma of the Russian Federation and a meeting with deputies involved in international activities.

Representatives of BelSU took part in the development of projects aimed at developing relations between Serbia and Russia.

“Such events help to find like-minded people on issues of a common historical and cultural heritage between Russia and Serbia. It is imperative that Russian youth understand the historical connection of peoples, as it is necessary to maintain good relations between countries. We learned a lot of historical facts about relations between Serbia and Russia,” said Maria Kokhanova.
