Learning foreign languages

Russia has political, business, trade, economic and cultural rela­tions with many countries of Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America. A lot of tourists and businessmen come to our country and a lot of Russian people go abroad. We have good relations with devel­oping countries. We help them to build plants, factories, schools, sta­diums, hospitals, radio- and TV-stations, etc.

Many young people come to Russia to study at our institutes and universities. Russian scientists cooperate with foreign scientists. Russia participates in international exhibitions abroad and arranges similar exhibitions in our country. Exhibitions help to improve our relations with different countries. More and more people in our country learn foreign languages. Many people learn to read books, newspapers and magazines in foreign languages in order to know more about the life and people of other countries.
