NTS reports, on November 2 - 3, our city hosted the International Ethno-Confessional Forum-Festival “Faith – Good – Unity”. The event was organized by the Representative office of the Eurasian Peoples’ Assembly in Sevastopol (Russia) and the Sevastopol regional branch of the “Assembly of peoples of Russia”. The festival was dedicated to the National Unity Day.

RUSLAN KOVEIKO, Head of the Representation of the Eurasian Peoples' Assembly in Sevastopol (Russia): “The Assembly of the Peoples of Russia lives under the slogan “Friendship of peoples - the unity of Russia”. The slogan speaks for itself. All our work is aimed at peace, friendship, and preservation of the ethnos. We have a multinational country.”

This year the Festival-Forum “Faith – Good - Unity” was held mainly in the online format. However, representatives of certain regions managed to come to Sevastopol to take part in its work.

YURI PALAMARCHUK, Head of the Representation of the Eurasian Peoples' Assembly in the Leningrad Region (Russia): “This is not the first time I have taken part in the event in Sevastopol. Sevastopol is an active platform for interethnic Eurasian cooperation, which is now gaining momentum.”

Representatives of about 103 different nationalities live in Sevastopol today.

According to Ruslan Koveiko, it is necessary to expand the field of activity associated with the propaganda of the traditions of different peoples.

RUSLAN KOVEYKO, Head of the Representation of the Eurasian Peoples' Assembly in Sevastopol (Russia): “Nowadays only 30 national-cultural communities work in our region. Therefore, we see that we have an “unploughed field” of work. We need to involve nationalities that are still outside our field of activity.”

Ruslan Koveiko and Yuriy Palamarchuk spoke about the last Festival-Forum and the activities of the Assemblies of the peoples of Eurasia and Russia in the program “Actual Interview”.
