government for promotion of the Russian language and culture headed
by Golodets. The council will comprise of Russian Duma members and
representatives from the foreign ministry, the ministry of culture,

work more efficiently and systematically, Levchenko said adding that

The centers will arrange teaching of Russian language and culture.
This year some 1.5 billion rubles were allocated for the program.

centers abroad", Levchenko said, as quoted by Novosti-Armenia.
The program will cover almost all countries of former USSR area,
including Armenia, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan,
Ukraine and Moldova. Similar centers will open in most European
countries, e.g. France, Finland, Germany, Czech Republic, Bulgaria,
as well as in Cuba and China. -0--
