The name of Patrice Lumumba was returned to the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia

It was decided to return the name of Patrice Lumumba to the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia. This was stated by the head of the Russian government Mikhail Mishustin during today's speech in the State Duma of the Russian Federation.

The initiative to restore the name of the Moscow university was earlier made by the head of the LDPR faction, Leonid Slutsky.



Addressing the leader of the Liberal Democrats, the head of the government of the Russian Federation said that the head of the Ministry of Education had already signed a corresponding order. At the same time, Mishustin stressed that he considers this decision fair.

Recall that the first stories Congo Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba has become a true symbol of the African peoples' struggle for freedom. The politician, who previously headed the National Movement of the Congo party, took office in 1960, immediately after the independence of the republic.

In the autumn of the same year, the newly minted head of government was arrested, but quickly released. However, after being re-arrested in December 1960, he was transferred to Katanga, where in January 1961, Lumuba, along with his political associates, were killed by local soldiers who were in direct command of Belgian officers.

In the same year, the Soviet authorities issued a decree naming the Moscow RUDN University after the first prime minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Meanwhile, in 1992, the aforementioned decree was repealed. The university was simply called the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia until today, when the name of Patrice Lumumba was returned to it again.

      And rural teachers will change Mercedes for Porsche every year after graduation ...
      And this is no joke.
      In the early 2000s, before the Unified State Exam, I had to enter and study at the institute. Every year in Saratov, 3-5-up to 10 teachers were taken at the entrance exams - on bribes for admission exams.
      If the exams are returned, teachers will be taken without exception - simply because now, even at the place of the cleaning lady, they want to see with a higher education.
      And no punitive measures will help

      You can even cover the floor with a mat,

    The right decision, especially in the light of current politics and relations with African as well as developing countries. In Africa, Lumumba is not just a politician, he is a banner for the independence of Africa.

    Eat. The guarantor established the medal "For Courage", although there is a medal "For Courage". Oil - oily. But this is not the most important thing. The new medal turned out to be ... two degrees - 1st and 2nd. Curiously, courage can be measured in degrees? Didn't it occur to those who "gave birth" to this award and to the one who established it? Here in the USSR it never occurred to anyone to evaluate "courage" in several degrees, as well as in liters, kilograms, and ... pounds! sad

    I knew that someone in response would give an example with "Glory", you are not original. Therefore, I answer.
    Glory as a concept can be of different degrees, or levels. For example, a person may be famous (in a good way) in his village, or district center, or city, but in the region, and even more so in the country, they may not know about him. But no one has yet been able to determine the level, or degree of courage - they have not come up with such a "machine". However, there was a person in the world who established such a "level". lol

    African socialism is so specific. Like the African socialists. Cuban pilot Gustavo Ponsoa, for example, wrote:
    "When I remember those African cannibals we fought in the Congo - those who were allegedly commanded by Che, the "mighty Tatu" ... my God, my God!"

    This is exactly where Lumumba, Mobutu, as well as the famous "wild geese" Mike Khor, Bob Denard plus Che Guevara in the role of "Mighty Tattoo" (his local "rebels" pissed off their laziness and cowardice).

    As an ordinary taxpayer, I do not understand why blacks and so on are taught in my country on a budget. I pay taxes so that they go to the citizens of the Russian Federation, to remove all these lulumbs to Africa, to their historical homeland. And let the citizens of the Russian Federation teach at the institutes and raise the level of education, and not chase the world ranking in the list of universities.
