Rossotrudnichestvo Deputy Igor Chaika believes that KSORS should play an active role in efforts to attract resettlers to Russia
On February 6, an international research and practical conference, “My Homeland—Russia: A View of Russia’s Image from Abroad and a Response to It,” was held in Moscow. It was organized by the Path Home movement and the Moscow Art and Industry Institute with the support of Rossotrudnichestvo.
At its opening ceremony, welcome remarks were delivered by Igor Chaika, Deputy Head of Rossotrudnichestvo; Senator Elena Afanasyeva, Deputy Chair of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs; and State Duma deputies Alexey Nechaev, leader of the New People faction in the State Duma and Chair of the Supervisory Board of the Path Home Autonomous Nonprofit Organization, and Maria Butina, a member of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs.
We asked each of them four questions and are now publishing a series of their answers. We invite you to read Igor Yuryevich Chaika’s answers.
