The participants were greeted by the acting Head of the Department of Modern Greek Philology Dr. Galina Vladimirovna Red’ko and the Deputy Director of International Affairs Department of Kuban State University Evgenia Mikhailovna Rotai, who emphasized the importance of the National Liberation Revolution in the History of Greece.
