Every year on June 6, the United Nations celebrates UN Russian Language Day, which was established by UNESCO in 2010.
This day aligns with the birthday of Alexander Pushkin, a renowned Russian poet known as the founder of modern Russian language.
The purpose of this initiative is to promote equal recognition and appreciation for all six official languages of the UN: English, Arabic, Spanish, Chinese, Russian, and French.
The decision to hold language days was made by the Department of Public Information (now the Department of Global Communications) on the eve of International Mother Language Day, celebrated annually on February 21 at the initiative of UNESCO.
The purpose of the UN Language Days is to raise awareness of the history, culture and development of each of the six official languages of the UN among the staff of the Organization.
