So, today students and teachers of PetrSU met online with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergei Lavrov. One of the questions that interested students was the question of the professional qualities of a diplomat. Sergei Lavrov said that, in his opinion, a candidate for the post of diplomat should know at least two foreign languages, be erudite, not lose self-control and be able to negotiate.
Dmitry Tarasov, a second year student of the Institute of History, Political and Social Sciences in the field of “International Relations”, prepared a question for Sergei Viktorovich:
I would like to ask Sergei Viktorovich Lavrov about the prospects for employment of international students at regional universities.
According to the student, he dreams of working as a diplomat in the Middle East, writes a term paper related to the development of international relations in this region.
It seems to me that carrying peace in hot spots is an important good goal,
– Dmitry notes.
The student is fond of studying foreign languages: he speaks English and German, he plans to learn Arabic. He studies at the Military Training Center of PetrSU, participated in the Victory Day parade.
It is interesting to study at the Military Training Center of PetrSU. After each lesson, you feel that you have mastered real knowledge, you feel training and discipline, close to that of an officer.
