Arab journalists visited Kazan on the eve of the Russian-Arab summit
On the eve of the first-ever Russian-Arab summit on October 11, a group of Arab journalists arrived in Kazan: almost 70 correspondents and bloggers from 19 countries in the region.
It is noted that on Saturday, October 11, they visited the Museum of Kazan University, the university where Vladimir Ulyanov (Lenin) studied. The guests were shown unique medieval handwritten Korans, books with images of Mecca and the Kaaba, as well as a map of the Arabian Peninsula.
"Visiting Kazan is a great opportunity to get to know Russian and Tatarstan culture better, to see how people live together and peacefully. Respect for religion and identity in one country, in Russia, is a great example of friendship between peoples, as well as in the Middle East," said ARABI ONLINE journalist Azet Ibrahim from Egypt.
On October 9, the Kremlin reported that during telephone conversations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Sudani, it was decided to postpone the Russian-Arab summit to a later date.
On September 10, the Syrian Embassy announced that the President of the Syrian Arab Republic for the transitional period, Ahmed al-Sharaa, would lead the country's delegation at the upcoming Russian-Arab summit. On September 12, Al-Sharaa also noted that Syria strives to maintain and preserve close historical ties with Russia.
On the same day, Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov noted that Moscow expects to hold the Russian-Arab summit in November, which was postponed from October. According to him, everything will depend on the situation surrounding the implementation of US President Donald Trump's plan for the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
