President of Abkhazia Badra Gunba sent a welcome address to participants of the Russian-Abkhazian Youth Forum in Nalchik

The greeting of the Head of State at the forum’s opening ceremony was read out by Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the State Committee of the Republic of Abkhazia for Youth and Sports, Tarash Khagba


The message reads:

"Dear Kazbek Valeryevich!
 
Thank you for inviting the delegation of Abkhazia to participate in such an important and significant forum. I would especially like to note your contribution to bringing together the youth of Abkhazia, Kabardino-Balkaria and the Russian Federation as a whole, as well as to strengthening friendly relations between our people.
 
Dear Forum participants, dear friends!
 
I sincerely welcome you, representatives of active and initiative-driven youth.

Today, communication between the youth of Abkhazia and Russia is of particular importance. It is through such meetings that mutual understanding is formed, trust is strengthened, and solid foundations for successful cooperation are laid.

It is especially meaningful for us that the forum is being held in the capital of the fraternal Kabardino-Balkarian Republic. Our peoples are united by historical and truly brotherly ties that have been tested by time and hardship.

This friendship did not arise by chance - it is passed down from generation to generation as a value that must be cherished and developed. During the most difficult period of Abkhazia's modern history, during the Patriotic War of the people of Abkhazia, our brothers from the North Caucasus came to the rescue. Their support became a manifestation of genuine brotherhood and solidarity.

Today, you, the sons and daughters of those who defended Abkhazia, are called upon to continue and strengthen the friendship established by your fathers, enriching it with new meaning and shared achievements.

I am convinced that your forum will become an effective platform for the exchange of experience, the development of new ideas and projects, as well as the strengthening of friendly ties.

I wish you fruitful work, interesting discussions, new acquaintances and the most pleasant impressions!"
