At the International RUSSIA EXPO, the main fir tree of the New Year tree gallery sparkled with lights - it symbolizes the RUSSIA EXPO, the unification of traditions of the peoples of our multinational country.

Each region made a toy that represents it", — said Natalia Virtuozova, Director General of the ANO «Directorate of the Exhibition of Achievements "Russia"».
