🇷🇺 Теперь вам не придётся пить в одиночестве. В Японии изобрели вино для котов.
- Ну что, Наташа, (выпьем) за хороший вечер!
🇬🇧 Now you won't have to drink alone. In Japan, they've invented wine for cats.
- Well, Natasha, (let's drink) to a good evening!

What Russians call the Cuban Missile Crisis, Americans refer to as the Cuban Crisis, and Cubans themselves call it the October Crisis.
🔻However, the world uses one name for the most important day in the Cuban Missile Crisis - "Black Saturday" (October 27, 1962) - the day the world came closest to global nuclear war.

Kazan: a rich heritage, captivating sights, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
