🌊 On September 2, the Honorary Consul of Russia in India began his journey along the route of Afanasy Nikitin

The starting point was Tver, namely the embankment of the famous Russian traveler. The head of the Russian House in Trivandrum, Ratish Nair, met with Senator of the Federation Council of Russia from the Tver Region Lyudmila Skakovskaya and Rector of Tver State University Sergei Smirnov.

“I am sure that this is a wonderful undertaking - repeating the path of the Tver merchant Afanasy Nikitin. This will help educational and outreach work, draw attention to the figure of the traveler, and strengthen the ties between our countries. I am sure that in our country, preserving and studying history is one of the most important areas of work,” the senator emphasized.

“Even in India, not everyone knows that Afanasy Nikitin is the first foreigner who arrived in our country for peaceful purposes. Friendly relations between India and Russia should be strengthened. This is also the goal of my mission. I am confident that a trip that follows the path of a Russian traveler will help show Russia as it is and open it up to foreigners without speculation and fakes,” said Ratish Nair.

💬 The meeting participants discussed the opening of Russian online educational courses in Russian in the Indian state of Karnataka, as well as other educational initiatives.

Let us remind you that in addition to Russia, the head of the Russian House in Trivandrum will visit four more countries. His route, like 555 years ago, will lie from Tver to Astrakhan along the Volga, then by car to Derbent and Azerbaijan, and then to Iran. From there, the modern explorer will fly to Oman, and then to India.

🌊 2 сентября началось путешествие Почетного консула России в Индии по маршруту Афанасия Никитина

Отправной точкой стала Тверь, а именно набережная знаменитого русского путешественника. Глава Русского дома в Тривандруме Ратиш Наир встретился с сенатором Совета Федерации России от Тверской области Людмилой Скаковской и ректором Тверского государственного университета Сергеем Смирновым.

«Я уверена, что это прекрасное начинание – повторение пути тверского купца Афанасия Никитина. Это поможет просветительской и образовательной работе, привлечёт внимание к фигуре путешественника, укрепит связи между нашими странами. Уверена, что в нашей стране сохранение истории и её изучение – одно из важнейших направлений работы», – подчеркнула сенатор.

«Даже в Индии не все знают, что Афанасий Никитин – это первый иностранец, который прибыл в нашу страну с мирными целями. Дружеские отношения Индии и России должны укрепляться. На это направлена и моя миссия. Уверен, что поездка, повторяющая путь русского путешественника, поможет показать Россию такой, какая она есть и открыть её для иностранцев без домыслов и фейков», – отметил Ратиш Наир.

💬 Участники встречи обсудили открытие российских образовательных онлайн-курсов на русском языке в индийском штате Карнатака, а также другие образовательные инициативы.

Напомним, кроме России, руководитель Русского дома в Тривандруме посетит ещё четыре страны. Его путь, как и 555 лет назад будет лежать из Твери в Астрахань по Волге, затем на автотранспорте до Дербента и Азербайджана, а после – в Иран. Оттуда современный исследователь на самолёте переправится в Оман, а затем в Индию.
