At this grand event, Denis Alipov, Russian Ambassador expresses his optimism about the potential agreement between India and Russia for mutual recognition of academic degrees. Alipov stated, “We are optimistic about reaching an agreement with India that would ensure mutual recognition of our degrees,” considering the growing number of Indian students pursuing higher education in Russia.
