Ella Pamfilova has also stressed a very active participation of Russian regional NG)s at the Forum and expressed hope that it would allow to integrate successfully into the international cooperation. “Our main aim is not to direct the discussion into the course favorable for the authorities, but to clarify the positions that our civil society is interested in”, - she added.
“We are ready to cooperate with everybody, - stressed Ella Pamfilova. She said that anti-globalists were also invited to participate.
