Solidarity

Cultures in Harmony would like to express solidarity with the British Council, the cultural diplomacy arm of the British government whose St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg offices were wrongfully closed by the Kremlin. Cultural organizations, especially those seeking to ameliorate international relations, deserve the freedom to operate openly, even if (and especially when) official political relations are less than healthy.
