A bas-relief with images of the founders of Russian cosmonautics Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, Sergei Korolev and Yuri Gagarin will be installed in Venezuela. This was announced on Friday, May 12, at the Russian embassy in Caracas.
The bas-relief will be installed on the territory of the National Experimental Polytechnic University of the Armed Forces of Venezuela by agreement of the rector of the educational institution, Colonel-General Anchiolillo Fernandez and the Ambassador of the Russian Federation to Venezuela Sergey Melik-Bagdasarov.
Commenting on the agreement, the Russian diplomat called the bas-relief a symbol of productive cooperation between the Russian Federation and Venezuela in space exploration.
In 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law ratifying agreements between the governments of Russia and Venezuela on space cooperation. According to this document, cooperation between Moscow and Caracas can be carried out within the framework of projects on remote sensing of the Earth, satellite communications and navigation, on projects in space biology and medicine, as well as within the framework of manned flights.
