Moscow office of UCL الدكتور خالد علي الحضرمي reflects the sustained demand for high-quality legal expertise, while the launch of the Russian Business Council is intended to serve as an additional pillar of support for companies interested in developing business in the Russian-Emirati direction.

We firmly believe that culture is the best bridge between nations, and accordingly, special attention was devoted to the cultural programme. Guests were treated to performances by an Arabic orchestra, a string quartet, and a ballet performing excerpts from Swan Lake and The Nutcracker. A special surprise for guests was a performance by the musical ensemble Soprano Turetskogo.

This combination of business and cultural elements created an atmosphere in which the formality of the event was organically blended with the warm and truly intimate character of the evening, underscoring the growing momentum of cooperation between Russia and the UAE.For further details, please visit Pravo.ru and Legal Insight.
