    Russian First Lady Svetlana Medvedeva welcomed on Thursday night
    participants in the Rising Stars in Kremlin festival which she
    initiated two years ago and called to educate respect to various
    cultures of the world.

    "Close and cordial communication is key to peace and accord. We all
    have to care and develop spiritual relations, friendship between
    peoples, and educate respective attitude of the growing generation to
    various cultures," she said while opening the concluding gala concert
    of the festival in the St. Alexander Hall of the Great Kremlin Palace.

    Medvedeva welcomed Queen Paola of Belgium, Armenian First Lady Rita
    Sargsyan, and First Ladies of Cyprus Elsie Christofia and of Slovenia
    Barbara Miklic Turk.

    "I hope you will have good impressions of your stay in Moscow," she said.

    The first Rising Stars in Kremlin festival was held in 2009 and
    involved young talents from eleven countries. This year participants
    arrived from 20 countries.

    "Although the festival is very young, it has already developed into a
    major cultural event in the life of our country and won international
    acclaim and is expanding boundaries. This time participants from
    France and Canada, Belgium and Bulgaria, Cyprus and Slovenia, Armenia
    and Azerbaijan gathered in the heart of the Russian capital,"
    Medvedeva said.

    The young talents performed with the famous Moscow Virtuosi camera
    orchestra under the baton of Vladimir Spivakov.
