On March 13, the Samara Interuniversity Olympiad on Diplomatic protocol and etiquette “SamDiP-2024” was held at the E.M. Primakov Center. As part of this event, students were able to feel like real specialists who are engaged in the preparation of diplomatic visits at a high level.



Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs F.M. Mukhametshin addressed the participants of the Olympiad with a welcoming speech and stressed the importance of holding such events to increase the level of knowledge of students interested in the history and modern development of diplomacy. Farit Mubarakshevich noted that the skills acquired within the framework of the Olympiad would be useful to future specialists working in the field of preparation of visits at all levels. We thank Farit Mubarakshevich for the book on diplomatic ceremony and protocol presented to the Primakov Center.

Dmitry Starostin, Head of the Information Department of the State Protocol Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, addressed the students,

Every diplomat is certainly a protocol officer. You represent our country wherever you are. Love your job, take care of your teachers. Forward to new heights!”

The knowledge and skills of the participants to understand various cases on the organization of diplomatic visits, as well as ordinary working meetings between representatives of different cultures, were evaluated by a highly qualified jury headed by Alexey Chupakhin, Representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry in Samara.

At the end of the Olympiad, each team had to perform a creative task, within which it was necessary to present a situation-an error from the history of diplomatic protocol.
