Two round tables devoted to inter-ethnic dialogue through culture and the results of the fall of the Berlin Wall have been included in the program of the Franco-Russian Civil Society Trianon Dialogue Forum, which takes place in Paris from November 11 to 13. Meetings, round tables, film screenings, competitions and other events of the forum are aimed at bringing Russia and France closer, TASS reports.

Artists, historians, diplomats and collectors from Russia, France and other countries take part in the round tables. French Minister of Culture Frank Riester, director of Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts Marina Loshak, UAE Minister of Culture and Social Development Nura al-Kaabi and others are among the guests of the forum.

Cultural participation in the development of interstate relations between Russia and France will be mentioned in the dialogue. Participants are guided by the fact that for centuries Russian and French culture have influenced each other, which affected the development of political ties between countries.

Russia is represented by the head of the World Association of Russian Press Vitaly Ignatenko, executive secretary of the Trianon Dialogue, ex-ambassador of Russia to Paris Alexander Orlov and others. It is assumed that participants will discuss the results of 30 years old processes and a new phase in the buildup of armed groups in Europe.

During the events of the Trianon Dialogue, the Dear Tomorrow contest for the younger generation will also be launched. Schoolchildren of two countries will be offered to speculate on the topic of human interaction and artificial intelligence.
