The delegates expect that with the participation of a large number of Russian institutions providing Vietnamese language training, the programme will create a new impetus for the Vietnamese language teaching movement in Russia.
Within the framework of the festival, a seminar on Vietnamese in Vietnam-Russia exchange and cooperation was held both in-person and online forms.

Speaking at the opening of the seminar, Vietnamese Ambassador to Russia Dang Minh Khoi said that the Vietnamese Language Festival in Russia is not only for Russian teachers and students to learn Vietnamese, but also for the Vietnamese community in Russia. Currently, many Vietnamese language training institutions in Russia have a team of good teachers with many students who are passionate about Vietnamese, he noted.
Affirming that language is the bridge connecting countries, Ambassador Dang Minh Khoi proposed the organisation of a Vietnamese Language Festival in Russia every year. This would provide an opportunity to connect Russian and Vietnamese students, as well as Vietnamese teachers of the two countries.
Within the framework of Vietnamese Language Festival in Russia, the organisers also displayed images of the country and people of Vietnam, introduced the art of calligraphy to a large number of Russian friends, and awarded prizes for the wall newspaper design contest about Vietnam for Russian students and children in the community.
