where the prospects for establishing twinning relations between Moscow and Victoria (the capital of the RSO), increasing the supply of domestic agricultural products to the RSO, and training specialists of various profiles for the Seychelles on the basis of regional universities were discussed at a meeting with the Governor of the Rostov region. As a representative of a large manufacturing company in the Rostov region, I was invited to become an honorary consul of the Seychelles.

The Seychelles National Library has received a collection of 16 books from the Honorary Consul of the Republic of Seychelles in Moscow, Moscow Region and Rostov Region, showcasing the continued cultural cooperation between Seychelles and Russia.
The biennial Honorary Consuls Conference kicked off today at the Savoy Hotel and Spa, with President Wavel Ramkalawan as the guest of honor. The event, themed "The Honorary Consuls: Our Partners in Advancing the Sustainable Development Agenda of Seychelles," was preceded by a reception hosted by the President and First Lady at State House yesterday evening.
The opening ceremony began with a moment of silence, honoring Honorary Consuls who have passed away and acknowledging those who have retired from service. This year's conference provides a platform to address critical topics requiring collective action, such as diaspora engagement, maritime safety, investment opportunities, and economic resilience.
To mark its 10th anniversary, Gran Kaz, hosted an international boxing tournament, featuring some of Seychelles' top boxers alongside a team from Russia, Rostov-on-Don.
The tournament took place at Gran Kaz Bel Ombre, and Seychelles had a team of eight Seychellois boxers who fought against eight boxers from Rostov-on-Don City from Russia.
"The event not only marks the beginning of a series of activities that Gran Kaz will be hosting to mark our 10th anniversary, but it also highlights our ongoing partnership with the Seychelles Boxing Federation, which began a little over two years ago," said the public relations manager, Shama Amesbury.
