🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the opening ceremony of the Tolstoy-Gandhi exhibition in New Delhi (March 1, 2023)

💬 This year we will mark two events of significance to both Russia and India: the 195th birth anniversary of the great Russian writer, Leo Tolstoy, and the 75th anniversary of the tragic death of Mahatma Gandhi.

☝️ The equality of peoples and the rejection of colonialism and all other forms of oppression were the values that bonded Leo Tolstoy and Mahatma Gandhi in the early 20th century, although they lived thousands of kilometres away from each other.

Tolstoy’s ideals of justice and love for one’s neighbours inspired Mahatma Gandhi during the early stages of his non-violent struggle against the British colonial yoke, which culminated in the declaration of India’s independence.

It is becoming increasingly important now to study the rich legacy of our countries’ public figures and moral leaders. We appreciate the substantial creative potential of India’s G20 Presidency and its theme on the unity of nations and common future for humanity, which resonates with the philosophy of Leo Tolstoy and Mahatma Gandhi.

🇷🇺🇮🇳 Moscow and New Delhi are consistent opponents of neo-colonial practices such as illegal unilateral sanctions, threats, blackmail and other forms of pressure on sovereign states.

We have been consistently advocating respect for the cultural and civilisational diversity of the modern world and the inalienable right of nations to independently choose their development paths.
