“For our city, it is an honour to hold such large-scale international event. The fact that the Conference will be held in politically and economically challenging time for Russia’s relations with its European partners, attaches even more significance and peculiar sense to it. And the interest our German partners – politicians, public figures and mayors of the twin cities – are showing to the Conference prove their commitment to maintain and further develop efficient bilateral contacts.
“The relations between the twin cities of Krasnodar and Karlsruhe have been fruitfully developing for 25 years. For more than once, they have been acknowledged exemplary.
“I hope that all scheduled activities will be held at a high level. We will discuss issues of inter-municipal links, economy, culture, youth exchanges and sports.
“I am confident that the participants will work fruitfully continuing an active dialogue between Russia and Germany, establish new contacts and give an additional impetus to the existing ones. Such ‘people’s’ diplomacy, diplomacy of friends and partners should exert a positive impact on the development of constructive contacts between our countries’ top representatives.
“As for the further fate of the forum, I hope that its format should retain, so that both Krasnodar and Karlsruhe will take an active part in the activities scheduled for 2019.”
