Two Russian compatriots living in India became participants in a humanitarian mission to the Lugansk and Donetsk People's Republics. The expedition took place in the autumn of this year, and volunteers from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Omsk and India took part in it.
Larisa Rai is an opera singer, graduated from the St. Petersburg State Conservatory named after N.A. Rimsky-Korsakov. In India - 26 years.
Ekaterina Sagatova is a doctor by training and enjoys music.
“Since 2014, Katya and I have been praying for such a trip to take place,” says Larisa Rai.
With the blessing of their Indian families, the women set off on their journey; their husbands paid for the increased price of air tickets “without question.” They took gifts to the residents of Donbass: the Indian Association of Russian Compatriots (IARC), led by Elena Barman, collected clothes for children, souvenirs, medicines, and blankets.
The mission’s path first ran through the Russian Kamensk-Shakhtinsky, then through Lugansk, Donetsk, Makeevka, Gorlovka and other settlements of the LPR and DPR. In Lugansk, one day they gave three concerts at once - at a nursing home, at a machine-building plant and at the Lutugino boarding school. They sang war songs and performed Indian dances.
– There is an indescribable state of upliftment and internal readiness there. State of truth, crunch of spirit! Bells are ringing throughout the Universe!
“We were approaching the front line and heard cannonade,” says Larisa. “We brought Indian tabla drums, so their sound scared the children at first. But then they started trying to play. And the children themselves know a lot about India and girls love to dress in sari.

June 24 is International Women in Diplomacy Day.
This day was established by the UN General Assembly in 2022 and is intended to highlight the importance of the role of women in global diplomacy and international relations.
On this day, the World Federation of Russian-Speaking Women, the LDPR Women's League and the Diplomatic Academy of the Russian Foreign Ministry held a ceremonial meeting that brought together women working in various areas of international activity. Participants included diplomats, representatives of business, non-profit organizations, education and healthcare, as well as students studying in international relations programs.
The President of the World Federation of Russian-Speaking Women Elena Afanasyeva noted the importance of recognizing the role of women in diplomacy. Particular attention was paid to the need to create conditions for their professional growth and broader participation in the decision-making process. Despite the fact that women's contribution to international activities is obvious, their representation in high diplomatic positions remains insufficient. However, positive dynamics have been observed in recent years.
The meeting was attended by women from China, Vietnam, Uzbekistan, the USA, Palestine, and India, which was represented by Russian compatriot Rita Biryukova.
Such meetings play an important role in promoting women in diplomacy, introducing young people to public diplomacy, and encouraging women's participation in international professional activities.

On this special day, compatriots gathered together to celebrate the importance of family values, communicate, share stories and simply spend time in a friendly atmosphere.
One of the main events was the presentation of honorary medals from the Government of the Russian Federation to two married couples - in recognition of their strong family union, devotion and contribution to the preservation of traditions.
President of IARC Elena Barman emphasized the importance of this holiday as an example for the younger generation: "Family, Love and Fidelity Day inspires us to cherish family ties, pass on love, respect and fidelity - the fundamental values of our culture - from generation to generation."
This day reminded everyone present that family is a source of strength, support and inspiration.
