The history of the Russian tricolor goes back more than 350 years. It was first raised on a ship «Orel» in 1668 under Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich, and 25 years later it became the personal standard of Peter I. In 1991, the white-blue-red banner again became a symbol of the state and opened a new page in the modern history of Russia.
🤍 White – purity, peace, nobility
💙 Blue – spirituality and loyalty
❤️ Red – strength and blood shed for the Motherland
For KRSU, this holiday is especially significant: our university unites educational traditions of Russia and Kyrgyzstan, and the flag – is a symbol of friendship, history and respect.
Happy National Flag Day of the Russian Federation to everyone!
