A delegation from the National University of Management took part in a gala evening dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Victory Day, the 76th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the establishment of diplomatic relations between Russia and China.
The ceremony was attended by Ivan Melnikov, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma and Chairman of the Russian-Chinese Friendship Society; Zhang Hanhui, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the People's Republic of China to the Russian Federation; State Duma deputies; representatives of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs; descendants of Soviet pilots who participated in the liberation of China from Japanese invaders; and representatives of the scientific and expert community.
SUM was represented by 87 people, including first- and second-year undergraduate students, second-year master's students, and faculty from SUM's Russian-Chinese program. Fifteen students from the first management department volunteered for the event at the request of the organizers, greeting guests at the entrance to the Column Hall of the House of Unions on Bolshaya Dmitrovka Street.
The gala event opened with the performance of the national anthems of the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China. Ivan Melnikov addressed the guests with a welcoming address, reminding them that the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation declared 2025 the Year of the Defender of the Fatherland in Russia and the 80th anniversary of victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945:
"Eight decades later, the pain hasn't subsided. At the same time, the pride in our fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers for the national courage they demonstrated remains undiminished. We remember! And we remember not only May, but also September, a crucial month for the victors. Eighty years ago, the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and World War II ended. For Russia and China, this is a sacred milestone!"
This was followed by a concert featuring the Russian-Chinese Youth Symphony Orchestra, the Chinese Student Choir of Russia, the Kastalia Concert Choir of the Vorobyovy Gory State Educational Institution, and the Greenwood Children's Choir, where the most famous works about the war by Russian and Chinese poets and composers were performed.
The event was organized by the Russian-Chinese Friendship Society, the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music, and the China Conservatory of Music (Beijing).
