Vladimir Putin sent greetings to the participants, organisers and guests of the 15th Congress of the Union of Public Associations – International Circassian Association for the Unity of the Circassian Nation and for Expanding Ties between the Circassian Diaspora and the Historical Motherland, which opened in Nalchik, the capital of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic.
The message reads, in part:
“Since its inception, the Association has evolved into an influential organisation that makes a significant contribution to preserving the unique features of Russia’s nations and strengthening interethnic and interfaith accord. It involves representatives of state agencies, Circassians from across Russian regions and foreign countries, scientists, cultural workers and artists and educators in this serious and diverse work. I would like to highlight that your regular meetings at the congress, along with their impressive expert and creative potential and, of course, the delegates’ result-oriented attitude, their commitment to implementing substantive projects aimed at preserving the native language, educating young people and expanding ties with compatriots abroad play an important role in this regard.
I am confident that the 15th Congress will be a success, and that its participants will draft essential practical initiatives to achieve a variety of topical objectives.”
