The message reads, in part:
“It is heartening that your movement brings together so many proactive, talented and dedicated people in Russia and around the world. It has built a solid reputation for itself, while the International Volunteer Corps you helped create has made a tangible contribution to preparing and holding large-scale and meaningful events marking the Great Victory, and also helped carry out important patriotic, educational, and cultural projects aimed at preserving and promoting historical memory about World War II. Your civic activism is evident through your educational efforts, and commands deep respect.
I hope that the Outcome Forum serves as a powerful impetus for the volunteer movement and helps enhance its creative potential.”
