The official emphasised that Russia's chairmanship of the CIS is based on our country's special role in efforts to deepen integration processes in Eurasia. He stressed that the Russian Chairmanship attaches the highest priority to preserving historical memory and working together against the growing attempts in the West to revise the history of World War II and to glorify Nazism. 📖A booklet containing the text of the Concept and Priorities of the Chairmanship, as well as information on the CIS was distributed among the guests. Attending diplomats got acquainted with a special issue of the magazine “Human Rights. Topical Aspects of Judicial and Law Enforcement Practice”, prepared by the Russian Prosecutor General’s Office and dedicated to the Special Military Operation, anti-Russian sanctions and crimes committed by the AFU. 🖼 An exhibition "Euromaidan: Essence and Consequences of the 2013-2014 Anti-Constitutional Coup d'Etat in Ukraine” was organized at the Mission. 📽Two documentaries were shown dedicated to the 10th anniversary of Crimea’s reunification with Russia and the Elbe Day of 25 April 1945.
