The 20th Persian Language Course started in Russia

According to the Saadi Foundation’s Public Relations Office, during the opening ceremony, Ms. Zohreh Hamdieh, an expert at the Iranian Cultural Counselor’s Office in Moscow, expressed her delight at the presence of Persian learners and stated that learning the Persian language provides a deeper understanding of Iranian culture.
"At a time when relations between Iran and Russia are at a high level and both nations are determined to strengthen their cooperation, learning Persian can serve as a bridge to bring our people closer. As learners of this language, you can play an important role in this process," she added.
