The delegation of the Russian Language Institute of RUDN University arrived in Africa last weekend. Within two weeks, the staff of the Institute will hold meetings with schoolchildren, students and school leaders of the Republic of Cameroon and the Central African Republic. A very busy agenda awaits the students of the Center.
