🇷🇺🌊🌊🌊🇮🇳 From September 2 to October 12, Ratheesh Nair, the Honorary Consul of Russia and head of the Russian House in Trivandrum (India), will embark on a journey retracing the "Journey Beyond Three Seas" route of Afanasy Nikitin. This project, commemorating the 555th anniversary of Nikitin's arrival in India, aims to present the image of modern Russia to residents of other countries while fostering connections between Indian business organizations and Russian regional Chambers of Commerce and Industry.

🟣The journey will span 🇷🇺Russia, 🇦🇿Azerbaijan, 🇮🇷Iran, 🇴🇲Oman, and 🇮🇳India, following the exact route of the Russian traveler. It will feature online meetings between Russian regional governments and their Indian counterparts, showcasing the tourist, industrial, and trade potential of various Russian regions including Astrakhan, Kostroma, Nizhny Novgorod, Tver, Yaroslavl, as well as the Republics of Tatarstan and Dagestan. Key discussions will focus on expanding trade, cultural, and educational ties through regional cooperation, and promoting Russia's trade opportunities abroad.

🟣 Throughout the journey, meetings with university rectors are planned, with a special emphasis on enhancing cooperation between Russian and foreign universities in student exchange programs and joint training initiatives. This ambitious project is organized by #Rossotrudnichestvo, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (#MFA), the #RusskiyMirFoundation, and the Russian Geographical Society (#RGS, #RGO), with #Rosatom and #Sber as partners.

🟣 By retracing Nikitin's historic route, this modern-day expedition not only honors a significant chapter in Russian exploration but also serves as a platform for cultural exchange and economic cooperation. It exemplifies Russia's commitment to fostering international understanding and collaboration, bridging the past with the present in a meaningful journey of discovery and partnership.

🇷🇺 Russian National Flag Day

🇷🇺 The flag of Russia is a symbol of our national unity and pride. It represents our country in the world, and its colours symbolise Russia's centuries-old history, culture and traditions.

⚡️ In 1991 it became the official state symbol, replacing the red banner of the USSR, since 1994 Russia has celebrated National Flag Day annually on 22 August.

🟣The colours of the Russian flag carry deep meaning:

⚪ White - nobility and frankness.
🔵 Blue - loyalty and honesty.
🔴 Red - courage, bravery and love.

🇷🇺 We congratulate our compatriots on National Flag Day! May our tricolour continue to fly proudly, symbolising the strength and unity of Russia!

🇷🇺 The Embassy of the Russian Federation in New Delhi, the Consulates General in Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai congratulate you on the Day of the State Flag of the Russian Federation!
