Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov met with representatives of the Tatar community in the USA. The Head of the republic had an informal conversation with compatriots from San-Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Columbia and Connecticut.

Some 300 Tatar families live in the United States at present. Two associations support and develop the Tatar nation’s cultural heritage - the American Turko-Tatar Association (ATTA) and the American Tatar Association (ATA). Members of the associations organize Sabantui celebrations, mark the great Tatar poet Gabdullah Tukai’s birthday, hold religious holidays and organize concerts of Tatar songs and dances. Both organizations have official websites in the Internet: www.atany.com, www.attasf.org.
