(VOVworld) - Roughly 600 Vietnamese students from universities in Moscow and the surrounding area are participating in a sports festival from May 1-9. 

At the festival, there’s an event for every sports loving student including football, track and field, and tug-of-war. The event aims to encourage Vietnamese students who are studying in Russia to live an active and healthy lifestyle and take some time off from their studies to enjoy life and have a great time. Over the years, the Vietnamese Embassy in Moscow has paid proper attention to culture and sports events for Vietnamese students, which always receive warm responses from the students.
