A non-state Russian House will appear in Burkina Faso; an agreement to open a Russian language and culture center in the African country was reached by the head of Rossotrudnichestvo Evgeny Primakov and the executive director of the Center for Public Diplomacy Natalia Krasovskaya, the Russian House telegram channel reports.

Natalia Krasovskaya stated the importance of developing tools to familiarize the population of Burkina Faso with Russian culture. They will allow residents of the country to enter Russian universities.

The new Russian House will start its activities next year. A photo exhibition entitled ''Window to Russia'' is already planned. The residents of the country will be able to study Russian as a foreign language. Work will also be carried out with the club of graduates of Russian and Soviet universities in Burkina Faso.
