Youth for Greater Europe. How young people can change the world for the better in the conditions of the growing crisis in relations between the USA, Europe and Russia. The point is to enable young people from different countries to express their position on the
fundamental issues of building a common future of the European continent, considering the historical, economic and political factors of the current situation in the world. Ask the experts questions and, on
the basis of the decisions made, make their specific contribution to the process of renovating the European building, but also preserving and strengthening the classical values of a great European culture.
