The primary mission

Основная миссия ЦБИ заключается в укреплении взаимоотношений между Россией и государствами Ближнего Востока и Северной Африки через создание плодотворного диалога между академическими, политическими, экономическими, культурными и общественными лидерами. Деятельность Центра направлена на сближение народов и государств региона с Российской Федерацией, продвижение позитивного образа России на международной арене и поддержку профессиональной подготовки нового поколения российских специалистов, готовых работать в динамично развивающихся условиях Ближневосточного региона.
