Igor Bikeev, First Vice-Rector and Vice-Rector for Research at KIU, is representing KIU in the implementation of the international cultural and educational project "Great BRICS Teachers: The Cultural and Moral Code of the Association" in the Brazilian cities of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Igor Izmailovich took part in the launch of the project's stage in Brazil and the round table "Synergy of Official and Public Diplomacy of Russia and Brazil: Experience, Achievements, and Prospects." The Vice-Rector spoke about KIU's work in the field of BRICS studies and about the unique "BRICS" auditorium at KIU, which has become a model for creating new public spaces in different countries.

He then participated in a ceremony to lay flowers at the memorial to Brazilian soldiers who fell in the fight against Nazism in Europe. In his address, Igor Izmailovich highlighted the combat brotherhood of Brazilian and Soviet soldiers, who, while fighting on different fronts, helped each other defeat a common, terrible enemy.

Work on the project continues. We look forward to more good news from Brazil!
