In his speech, Coordination Center Director Andrei Vorobyov drew attention to the fact that 2019 was an anniversary year for the Russian internet segment and .RU. “We began celebrating the 25th anniversary of the ccTLD in April and we are concluding the celebrations with a digital December. Over this time, more than 50,000 people took part in the celebrations, including the RIW 2019 participants. More than 5,000 have already watched the Coordination Center’s movie Internet for All, and we are now finishing the premiere screenings in the regions. At the beginning of 2020, everyone will be able to watch the movie via the center’s official channels. Our next year will also mark an anniversary: the second Russian ccTLD, .РФ, will celebrate its 10th birthday next May. The Coordination Center is preparing a large educational program and invites everyone to join,” Andrei Vorobyov said. He also emphasized that it was important to establish relations of trust between the internet and the state and reminded everyone that to date this topic was being discussed at the highest international level events, such as APrIGF held in Vladivostok in July, the global IGF in Berlin and other forums and meetings.
