The message reads, in part:
“Your regular meetings have become a good tradition of today’s Russian Cossacks, an event that unites young people around the values of creativity and friendship, helps preserve the original Cossack way of life, history, and cultural customs, as well as spiritual and moral principles based on loyalty to duty and selfless service to the Fatherland. It is all the more encouraging that the forum is expanding its representation and geography. This year, for the first time, its delegates included students from Cossack cadet corps, as well as guests from CIS countries and around the world. All this undoubtedly contributes to the main objectives of your event – strengthening cooperation and fostering a fruitful exchange of experience and best practices in the development of the Cossacks and military-patriotic education.
I am confident that participation in the forum, along with its educational and extracurricular programmes, masterclasses and contests, will open new avenues for knowledge and opportunities, and will help you excel in your careers.”
