Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in St. Petersburg on September 25. He speaks at the XII International Forum of United Cultures. This event in his MAX-channel shared the Vice-Governor of the city Boris Piotrovsky.

At the forum, the President noted that Russia is shaping culture as an accessible right for everyone, and not as a privilege for a select few. He also stressed that the country needs modern directors, curators and other artists who can subtly feel the demands of today’s audience and deeply understand culture.

In addition, one of the key tasks of the state is the unification of cultural heritage and modern technologies, which should develop harmoniously and complement each other.
