Mexico-Russia cultural and academic ties at Puebla State Congress, Digi Mart USA News (Puebla, Mexico): A musical encounter was held at the Puebla State Congress with the aim of strengthening cultural and academic ties between Mexico and Russia. The event was presented as a space for dialogue and artistic exchange that recognizes the talent of musicians, promotes culture in its many expressions and brings traditions of both countries closer to society.
The gathering was led by Pável Gaspar Ramírez, president of the Junta de Gobierno y Coordinación Política of the Congress, and by Russian Ambassador to Mexico Nicolay Sofinskiy.
Welcoming attendees, Deputy Pável Gaspar Ramírez highlighted the cultural relationship between Mexico and Russia and the bond between the two nations in strengthening diplomatic ties and humanist values. He said it was an honor to take part in a bicultural encounter between two of the greatest civilizations the world has witnessed, adding that the great geographic distance between them is inversely proportional to the ideological and political coincidences the two nations have shown at different stages of their historical development.
The artistic and cultural program included traditional dances from Mexico and Russia, as well as a concert performed by the Moscow Tchaikovsky State Conservatory and the Benemérito Conservatory of Music of the State of Puebla.
Deputies Esther Martínez Romano, Beatriz Manrique Guevara and Gabriela Chumacero Rodríguez, along with Deputy Jaime Alejandro Aurioles Barroeta, attended the event.
