The final stage of the 9th Olympiad in the Russian language for students of Vietnamese schools studying Russian
On February 18 and 19, the final stage of the IX Olympiad in the Russian language for students of Vietnamese schools studying the Russian language was held at the Russian Center for Science and Culture in Hanoi (RCSC).

The Vietnamese-Russian Examination Commission (the jury of the Olympiad) included the Rusists, the staff of the RCSC in Hanoi, the president of the Vietnamese Association of Teachers of the Russian Language and Literature, authoritative Russian language teachers at the Russian Embassy in Vietnam.
At the same time, a meeting of the delegation of the RUDN and other Russian universities with the teachers of Russian special schools of Vietnam was held at the RCSC. Within the framework of the meeting with Vietnamese colleagues, information was presented on the University's educational programs, the order of admission to the RUDN.

The number of foreign ambassadors of Russian education and science has reached 47. In October 2026, 12 more teachers, scientists, and public figures received this honorary status - from Brazil, Israel, Kazakhstan, Cameroon, China, Lebanon, Moldova, Mongolia, Nigeria, Peru, Syria, and the Central African Republic. Five of them studied at Peoples' Friendship University of Russia.
Last week, RUDN University welcomed a delegation led by Gao Song, President of Peking University. The visit marked his first international trip since assuming office as the rector of the university, which ranks 13th globally.
In RUDN’s main building, Russian speech has mixed with Arabic and strict business suits with national attire. The reason for this is the 100th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Russia and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The university hosted a large-scale event “The Century of Friendship, Cultural and Scientific Exchange between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Russian Federation”, which brought together diplomats, scientists, rectors of leading universities, and students.
