🇷🇺 Vladimir Putin has been inaugurated as President of Russia in a ceremony that took place at the Kremlin (May 7. 2024)
💬 In these solemn and crucial moments of assuming the office of the President, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the citizens of Russia across all regions of our country, as well as those living in the historical territories of Russia who have won their right to stand united with our Motherland.
I humbly honour our heroes, the participants in the special military operation, and all those who are fighting for our Fatherland.
I would like to thank you again for the trust you have placed in me and for your unwavering support. These words are directed to every citizen of Russia.
<...>
🌐 We have been and will continue to be open to strengthening good relations with all countries that view Russia as a reliable and honest partner. Indeed, those constitute the global majority.
We are not rejecting dialogue with Western states. The choice is theirs: whether they intend to continue trying to contain Russia’s development, continue the policy of aggression, the relentless pressure they have been exerting on our country for years, or seek a path to cooperation and peace.
To reiterate, we are open to talks, including on security and strategic stability, but not to negotiations from a position of strength. We are open to a conversation without arrogance, conceit or exceptionalism – a dialogue on an equal footing and with respect for each other’s interests.
Together with our partners in Eurasian integration and other sovereign development centres, we will continue to build a multipolar world and an equal and indivisible security system.
<...>
☝️ We stand as a united and great nation. Together we will overcome all obstacles and ensure that everything we conceive becomes reality. Together we win!

🇷🇺🤝🇮🇳 A public viewing of the solemn inauguration of Russian President Vladimir Putin took place at the Russian House in Mumbai as part of the conference "The Victory of the Soviet Union in the Great Patriotic War and its Impact on World Order."
The conference, dedicated to the 79th anniversary of the Great Victory, was organized jointly with the Center for Eurasian Studies of Mumbai University and the Shailendra Educational Society.
More than 20 teachers, graduate students and students presented reports on various stages of the Second World War and the impact that Victory had on the countries of Asia and Africa. Much attention was paid to the transformation of the USSR into a superpower after 1945, which had a huge impact on both relations between the USSR and India, and on the Union's relations with other countries. Almost each of the speakers noted Russia's desire to build a dialogue "on equal terms" with all states ready for dialogue.

This Soviet scientist decoded the Mayan script even before traveling to Mexico!
In a dusty cabinet of a Leningrad museum, a young Yuri Knorozov managed to do what scientists across the world had been struggling over for centuries. And he only visited Mexico a whopping 40 years after his epochal discovery.
The simple employee of the Museum of Ethnography of the Peoples of the USSR began learning about Maya writing from a scientific article.
It was first presented as an unsolvable riddle of mankind. “What was invented by a human mind can be unraveled by another human mind,” Knorozov said later in an interview. No one in the USSR before him had ever taken on the challenge, so he decided to give it a try.
Having studied all available documents, he realized that each Mayan sign should be read as a syllable, not a single letter or word. So, he proposed a system for reading the entire language. In 1952, Knorozov wrote a paper on his method and received a PhD degree.
Soon, the whole world learned about Knorozov's discovery and he was even allowed to travel to several foreign conferences from the otherwise closed USSR. However, he only saw the monuments of the Mayan civilization for the first time in the 1990s, already as an elderly man.
Although few people in Russia have heard of his name, he is still a real star in Latin America.
