Congratulations from the Russian Ambassador to South Africa and Lesotho R.E. Embrov on the occasion of National Unity Day (November 4, 2026): Dear compatriots! Please accept my most sincere congratulations on National Unity Day! This holiday reminds us of one of the most important events in Russian history - the liberation of Moscow from Polish invaders in 1612. Then the cohesion, courage and unity of the people helped to protect the independence and statehood of Russia, its right to an independent path of development. It is no coincidence that President V.V. Putin declared the year 2026 as the year of the unity of the peoples of Russia. The strength of our country lies in the unity of its multi-national and multi-religious people, in respect for the shared historical heritage, mutual support and the continuity of generations. I would like to express special words of thanks to my Russian compatriots living in South Africa. Despite the distances, you maintain a spiritual connection with your historical homeland, preserve and carefully pass on national traditions to future generations, support the Russian language and publicize the rich cultural and historical heritage of our country. Your contribution to strengthening ties with Russia deserves deep respect. I am sure that a shared history, loyalty to traditions and a sense of involvement in the fate of the homeland will continue to unite us, wherever we are. Let this holiday strengthen faith in goodness, mutual understanding and harmony, inspire new achievements for the benefit of our homeland! From the bottom of my heart I wish you and your loved ones good health, prosperity, peace and well-being! Happy National Unity Day! Ambarov.
