Russian Language Year starts in Mongolia

The year of 2018 has been declared the Year of Russian Language and Culture in two Mongolian provinces, TASS informs. The citizens of the Eastern and Hantiysk Aymaks (the regions in Mongolia) will be able to learn more about the language, historical traditions and cultural peculiarities of our country. Both provinces border with Zabaykalsky Krai.

As per the regional government, the year promises to be very interesting to encompass all fields. Russian Film Festivals and Days of Russian-Mongolian Friendship are planned in Choibalsan and Chingis, Mongolia. Numerous creative bands of Zabaykalsy Krai will perform for the Mongolian audience. Exhibitions dedicated to the culture of Zabaykalsky Cossacks and the Old Believers will be opened. Besides, modern conferences with participation of students and teachers of higher educational institutions from the both countries will take place.

Mongolian students will participate in the Russian Language Olympiad in Chita, where festivals, competitions and contests will be organized.

The Year of Mongolian Language and Culture will start in the capital of Zabaykalsky Krai next year. There will be concerts of Mongolian troupes, film demonstrations, exhibitions and a virtual tour around sights of the neighboring country.

The Cross-Years’ tradition will give an opportunity to deepen ties between the regions of Mongolia and Russia in the cultural-humanitarian sphere and fulfill the conception of state support and popularization of the Russian language abroad.
