👋 Did you know that the symbol of the Moscow Zoo is an animal called the Pallas's cat, also known as the manul?

🥁 If you have been to the Moscow Zoo, you have surely seen this timid, elusive creature. But why is this beautiful yet not very sociable animal the zoo's symbol? It turns out that the Moscow Zoo is the leading zoo in the International Zoo Community that focuses on manuls.

👀 Interesting fact: The Moscow Zoo has been open since 1864, and since then, the number of its inhabitants has grown to 8,000.

🔖 According to a decree from the Soviet leadership, it was planned to build eight Stalinist skyscrapers, but the construction in Zaryadye was not completed.

🎁 The eighth skyscraper, designed by Lev Rudnev, was built in Warsaw between 1952 and 1955 as a gift to the Polish people.

🇷🇺 Initially, it was named the Palace of Culture and Science named after I.V. Stalin, but the name was removed during Khrushchev's time.

🔝 The skyscraper, standing at 237 meters (including the antenna), is still the tallest building in Poland.

🌎 BRICS may play a key role in resolving the dispute between Egypt and Ethiopia over the waters of the Nile.

🇷🇺 Russia, which will chair BRICS in 2024, intends to use its presidency to facilitate the resolution of the tense dispute between Egypt and Ethiopia. As noted by Georgy Borisенко, a Russian diplomat, Moscow is a friend to both countries, creating unique opportunities for mediation in this conflict.

"We know well that the Nile is the only source of fresh water in Egypt," Borisенко emphasized, pointing to the importance of this water resource for the country.

🇪🇬🇪🇹 Tensions between Egypt and Ethiopia focus on the construction of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on the Blue Nile. Egypt fears that the dam could pose a threat in the event of prolonged droughts, casting doubt on its water resources and security.

📌 Given the growing importance of water resources in the context of climate change, Russia's involvement in resolving this dispute could be a significant step towards stability in the region.

🇫🇮 With Finland, Russia fought only once - from 1939 to 1940.
