OREANDA-NEWS  The second Russian school in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) will open in Dubai in the near future. This was announced on Friday by the Minister of Education of the Russian Federation Sergey Kravtsov on the air of the TV channel "Russia-24".

The Minister recalled that the first Russian school in the country was opened in Abu Dhabi in September 2022.

"The second school [in the UAE] will be opened in Dubai in the near future," he said, noting that there is a great interest in studying in such schools.

Kravtsov stressed that it is necessary to open schools that "do not impose any of their own education systems, like the American or English ones." According to the minister, such schools form the worldview of students "according to their patterns", without taking into account national interests.
