The "Russian Road" expedition took place in Serbia, reports the Telegram channel of the Rossotrudnichestvo representation. The project aims to preserve historical heritage, reminding us of the contribution made by Russian Cossacks to the development of remote areas located in the mountains in the southern part of the country. The expedition was also timed to coincide with Geographer's Day. Its route followed the Vranje — Bosilegrad road, which is still called the "Russian Way." It is actively used today. In the past century, the road held strategic importance, connecting Southern Serbia with Eastern Bulgaria. The project was organized by the Russian House in Belgrade with the assistance of the Russian-Serbian Humanitarian Center in Niš. The high mountain road was built by Cossacks from the Russian Kuban Cossack Division under the command of General Vasily Logvinov. The construction lasted almost five years, being completed in 1925. The Cossacks massively relocated to Serbia in the 1920s, with over four thousand people participating in the road's construction. Their memory is immortalized by obelisks installed on Mount Besna-Kobila and in the village of Korbevats near the city of Vranje. As part of the expedition, the director of the Russian House in Belgrade, Evgeny Baranov, the director of the Russian-Serbian Humanitarian Center in Niš, Evgeny Filatov, and the Russian Ambassador to North Macedonia, Sergey Bazdnikin, laid wreaths at the monument to the Russian Cossacks. The Russian House reported that discussions are currently underway to install tourist signs on the "Russian Road" at the exit from Bosilegrad and Korbevats. Rossotrudnichestvo representatives added that they hope the road will celebrate its centennial under the official name "Russian Way."
