Uniting Europe and Asia, the Bosphorus symbolizes the crossroads of cultures, economies, and politics, underscoring the importance of the events taking place there. This is why the Moscow Government, with the support of the Moscow House of Compatriots, chose Istanbul as the venue for a meeting of the Russian-speaking journalists from around the world.
