“It is extremely difficult for regional universities these days to integrate themselves into the global network and establish a dialogue with Russian and international representatives of the academic community. The Russian International Affairs Council serves as a connecting link between these communities, and it is through the work of the RIAC that such work has become possible,” Igor Zhukovsky commented.
