Russia donates Peter the Great statue to France
(5 Oct 2017) Russia has donated a statue of Peter the Great to the French Academy of Sciences to mark 300 years since the Russian czar visited Paris in a pivotal moment in his crusade to open his country toward the West.
In unveiling the bust Thursday, Russian Deputy Culture Minister Alla Manilova told The Associated Press it's a gesture that underlines the depths of our relations.
She also called it a gesture of historic justice: While the French academy holds busts of other great world thinkers, she said, there was one who wasn't here — it was Peter.
The ceremony in the prestigious, domed Paris academy comes as French President Emmanuel Macron has cautiously sought to improve ties with Russia after years of East-West tensions over Moscow's actions in Syria and Ukraine.

Hello, everyone! Want to know more about Moscow? Subscribe to our channel.
►
Spring is in the air, so let s speak about something romantic! For example, about the first bal of Natasha Rostova.
What house was the prototype of Rostovs estate in War and peace?
Did the 200 year old elm, the favorite of Ivan Bunin, remain?
Where did the people who worked in the tzar kitchen live?
What other sculpture of Vera Muhina after Worker and kolhoz woman is popular in Moscow?
Where did Pushkin first read his poem Poltava?
You will know all this when you see our new video!
Today our Moscow travel guide invites you to walk along the most aristocratic street in Moscow - Povarskaya. It connects New Arbat and Sadovoye ring.
In fact Povarskaya means Cook s street. Its because those, who were in service in the Tzar kitchen lived here In 16th -17th century. And also Ivan the Great s guardsmen, because this street was a way to Novgorod.
We ll start our excursion from the legendary restaurant Praga. It was opened in 1872 and the address was Povarskaya, 1. After the October revolution this luxury restaurant turned into a canteen! Mayakovskiy liked to eat here.
This is a church of Simeon Stolpnik. It was built in 17th century. Look at its beautiful 5 domes in the traditional Moscow style.
Here count Sheremetiev married a serf actress Praskovia Zhemchugova. Gogol used to come here during the last years of his life.
Let s continue our walk and go up the street to the Sadovoe ring. The Golden age of the estates on Povarskaya starts from the 18th century, from the Peter times.
The Tzar kitchen moves to the new capital St Petersburg. And the street begins to be a home of russian aristocrats: Gagarin, Golitsin, Dolgorukiy, Volkonsky.
Today most of the estates host different foreign embassies, for example Norway or Cyprus. In Bludov s estate on Povarskaya, 15 there is a Supreme court of Russia now. Look, here is the sculpture of Femida, without an eye patch for some reason.
Not far from the Borisoglebsky street was a court of Peter s the first sister Natalia.
Unfortunately not all estates survived till nowadays. Some of them burned out, some were demolished.
For example between 2 streets Borisoglebskiy and Big Rshevskiy instead of 2 luxury estates of the 18th century the soviets made a park of Ivan Bunin. 200year old elm the favorite Bunins tree unfortunately has not survived.
Lets continue our excursion. Look at the house number 25, the Gagarin estate. Prince Gagarin, the director of the Emperors theatre ordered to build the main house in the empire style.
In the 1920s the cavalry school was in this building, and in the 1937 it became the Literature institute. In the yard you can find another famous sculpture of Vera Muhina The thunderbird of Revolution.
And here is the Orlov s house. In the 19th century it belonged to the count Sheremetiev. In one of its splendid halls Pushkin read his poem Poltava for the 1st time.
The only wooden house that remained on Povarskaya, is the house with mesonine of the princess Volkonskaya.
House number 50 - the famous Writers house was the first writers cub in Moscow.
And at last we came up to the house № 52. This very estate with 6 columns was the home of Tolstov s Natasha Rostova, the hero of his famousWar and peace.
This yellow estate is made in russian classicism style. There is a small church near the main house. In 1920 the Palace of arts was opened here. Boris Pasternak, Alexey Tolstoy, Sergei Esenin and Marina Zvetaeva performed here.
In the yard you cfn see the monument to Lev Tolstoy made by Vasnetcov.
Today several writing organizations and restaurants are located here.
Povarskaya led us to the Sadoviy ring. Here, on Kudrinskaya square Moscow travel guide and me, Vera will say bye bye to you.

La statue dédiée à Youri Gagarine à Moscou (images aériennes)
Le monument à Youri Gagarine a été érigé en 1980 à Moscou en mémoire du cosmonaute. L'œuvre représente Youri Gagarine le corps droit et les bras tendus vers le bas et détachés de son buste, comme s'il s'élevait dans les airs. La statue est d’une hauteur de 42,5 mètres. Au pied du monument est placée une reproduction de la capsule spatiale Vostok 1, à bord de laquelle Gagarine a effectué son vol.

Giant Statue Of Prince Vladimir The Great Stirs Controversy In Moscow
For more WORLD NEWS SUBSCRIBE US
MOSCOW: Scaffolding surrounds the vast clay sculpture-in-progress inside a warehouse on Moscow's outskirts, yet already the statue of Vladimir the Great has caused an outcry as big as the monument itself.
The 24-metre (78-feet) high likeness of the man who brought Christianity to Kievan Rus - the forerunner of modern Russia and Ukraine - is set to tower over the capital, the latest potent symbol in a surge of patriotism taking hold in Russia.
Prince Vladimir is revered as a saint by the Russian Orthodox Church and a hero by others, including the noted sculptor of the work, Salavat Shcherbakov. But not all Moscow agrees.
Vladimir is our founding father Shcherbakov told AFP, comparing the 10th-century leader to America's George Washington or Abraham Lincoln.
He's a figure whom the people, the country, can rely on. And he is important right now he said, working on the ornate robes as Vladimir looms above, right hand raised high ready to hold a cross.
Moldova, Transnistria and its relationship with Russia | VPRO Documentary
How is the relationship of Moldova and Transnistria with Russia? What happened in Moldova after a change of regime and the cooperation agreement with the EU? Are Moldova and Transnistria depending on Russia and if so, why? A documentary about Moldova, Transnistria and its relationship with Russia.
In this eight-part travel series, the Dutch journalist and author Jelle Brandt Corstius travels through Russia and visits the neighbor countries Latvia, Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. What image do the Russians have of their neighbors and vice versa? What are the relations between powerful Russia and the other former Soviet republics? And how do the countries around Russia treat their Russian inhabitants? A series about propaganda and identity.
Moldova seems to stand still. There are still Soviet buildings everywhere. And since the change of regime, the streets have not been serviced. Until 2009, the Communists still had the say. Recently, a pro-European coalition is at the power, signing a cooperation agreement with the EU. Russia was not pleased about it so that no Moldavian wine could be exported anymore. Wine is one of the most important export products in Moldova. Everywhere you go, you can see vineyards.
The two largest wine cellars of the world are in Moldova. In Cricova you can find a tunnel system of 120 kilometers. During the Second World War, Jews were hidden in the wine barrels. Today you can find wine collections that belong to personalities such as Putin, Angela Merkel or John Kerry.
Moldova is the poorest country in Europe. No wonder that many young job seekers are leaving the countryside. The remaining Moldovans have to be satisfied with the money from abroad, even though the pressure from Russia is as big as their dependency. The oil and gas come for example mainly from Russia. Jelle visits the territory of Transnistria, which freed itself from Moldavia after a bloody war in the 1990s and now wants to join Russia.
