🇺🇸🎙 US Media Personality and Political Commentator Jackson Hinkle - Exclusively for the Russian Embassy in South Africa

▫️ On the International Russophile Movement (MIR) Conference in Johannesburg (November 13, 2024):

My experience at the International Russophile Movement conference in Johannesburg was nothing short of inspiring. It was a gathering of people who share a commitment to traditional values and a vision for a multipolar future. #Africa, in particular, has a rich history of coexistence between Islam and Christianity - much like Russia - and this theme resonated throughout the event. We heard from a diverse range of speakers, not only from South Africa but across Africa, China, Russia, and the United States.

This year, I also had the opportunity to participate in the Second Congress of the International Russophile Movement in Moscow. It was, in my opinion, one of the best gatherings of minds from around the world I’ve ever witnessed. There are few, if any, events that bring together such a broad spectrum of cultures and ideas. The discussions and projects that came out of this event were world-changing, and I believe they will play a crucial role in shaping a true multipolar world. I left deeply impressed, having made valuable connections that I hope will last a lifetime.

▫️ On Visiting #Moscow This Year:

Simply put, there's no city like Moscow. Moscow feels like a city of giants, it has hundreds of years of history. What really stood out to me, though, was Moscow's living standards - it's clean, safe, and has exceptional infrastructure. These are things you can't find in any major American city. The subway system is incredible, so much so that I still use it today since I’m part-time living in Moscow. But it's funny to me when people, even Russians themselves, claim that only Moscow and St. Petersburg are nice cities in Russia. That couldn’t be further from the truth. I’ve been to cities like Nizhny Novgorod, Vladivostok, and Novosibirsk, and they are just as beautiful and unique.

▫️On Being Part of the #Russophile Movement:

I consider myself first and foremost an American patriot, but I suppose many of my values align with those of the Russophile movement. The Russian Orthodox Church, which I view as the foundation for much of Russia's cultural and ideological identity, resonates deeply with me.

While I’m not a Russian citizen and haven’t yet learned Russian, I do identify with the
Russophile movement in many ways. It’s about shared values and a deep respect for Russian culture, which I’ve come to admire.
