Attention!  Time and date have been changed!!  If you saw the previous announcement saying it will be on the 20th, please take note!

American flags will be given to Americans who want to show their support.  Please share on social media, email, etc.

Our friends at the World Russia Forum, who recently hosted a remarkable conference in Washington, D.C. at the US Congress, in which RI took part, are the organizers of this event.  They asked us to help spread the word, which we are delighted to do.

Our friend, Ed Lozansky, who runs the forum, will be there, as will, supposedly, the mayor of Moscow, assorted celebrities, and prominent American politicians.  The US ambassador has also been invited.

Ed, who is a naturalized American citizen, says he’s got a wagonload of American flags which he hopes to hand out to Americans, so if you are American, and want to show your support, be sure to find him there and get a flag!

Assorted Russia Insider team members will be there, including editor Charles Bausman.

It should be a nice ceremony.
