"Yesterday at the forum, we talked about what our history and the history of our victory in the Great Patriotic War mean to us. <...> This is a very important, core part of our identity.

The first Cuban cosmonaut Arnaldo Tamayo, in an interview with Izvestia, said that the forum discusses topics from the field of international relations, especially in the context of the 80th anniversary of the Victory and the 65th anniversary of the restoration of diplomatic relations between Cuba and the USSR.
