Greetings of Interim President of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov on the Day of Christianization of Rus
27 July 2015, Monday
On July 28 we celebrate a remarkable date - the Day of Christianization of Rus, which took place in Kiev in 988. That day predetermined the future of our state and the spiritual power of Orthodoxy united many tribes.
Russia has embodied the heritage of Byzantine Empire, the Golden Horde, and Europe, achievements of Christian, Muslim, and other world civilizations, and became the motherland for representatives of many nationalities and religions.
Today we strive for consolidation of peace and concord in the society, counteract destructive alien influence and by relying on traditional religious values and developing positive inter-ethnic and inter-confessional interaction.
In accordance with the order of Russian President Vladimir Putin, events to honour the memory of Prince Vladimir the Great will be held in Russia and Tatarstan this year.
The history of our multi-ethic country proves that no one and never can break the sorting spirit of our people.
Sincere love of country, high spiritual and moral values have always been the support of Russian civic consciousness.
I congratulate you on the Day of Christianization of Rus and wish you happiness, peace and wellbeing!
Interim President of the Republic of Tatarstan, Rustam Minnikhanov.
