The message reads, in part:
“Your forum has brought together hundreds of delegates from more than 130 countries from all continents. This broad representation clearly shows that the international Russophile public movement is growing confidently and gaining new supporters.
The Russophile Movement substantially contributes to countering the attempts of the collective West to isolate Russia internationally and helps disseminate objective and trustworthy information about our country abroad, as well as dispel anti-Russia speculations and myths created by propaganda.
The movement’s noble activities help preserve and strengthen the traditions of friendship and mutual respect that connect Russians with other nations; it helps unite the Russian world, promote our national culture and its achievements, and expand our humanitarian presence in the world.”
