Guests from dozens of countries have gathered in Moscow for a conference on global challenges

President Vladimir Putin has sent a greeting message to participants at the ‘Inventing the Future’ international symposium that kicked off on Monday at the ‘Russia’ national center in Moscow.

Representatives of different professions and generations have gathered “for a serious, thorough discussion about long-term, strategic plans, about how we see our future,” Putin said in his address, posted on the Kremlin website.

“Despite the challenges we are facing today, we must set goals for ourselves that are ahead of time, outline new areas for breakthroughs, and strive to look beyond the horizon of tomorrow,” the Russian president said.

“We must determine our future ourselves, based on a sovereign worldview, national culture, a tireless creative search, and a firm commitment to indisputable moral and patriotic ideals and values,” he stressed.

With such a perspective, the most daring dreams “will definitely come true,” as the people of Russia have proven that throughout history, Putin stated.

“They created a great power, opened the way to the stars for humanity, ensured the country’s leadership in the use of the peaceful atom, and made grandiose scientific and geographical discoveries,” the Russian leader said.

The forum will run for three days. Its program includes over 60 discussion sessions on the future of humanity, civilization, the multipolar world and technology. It is being presented as a “unique international platform” to discuss global challenges. Scientists, researchers, futurologists, writers and officials from over 100 countries, including India, Italy, Iran, China, the UAE, Serbia, the US and France, are taking part, according to the organizers.
