Grigory Pasko: An Interview with a Russian Latin Americanist
Boris Martynov: “Russia’s geopolitical interest in Latin America needs to be reinforced with economics”
Grigory Pasko, journalist
The Institute of Latin America of the Russian Academy of Sciences has existed since the year 1961. When I saw this building, a thought flashed through my mind: the last modernization of this building took place also not in this century. The arrangement in the office of deputy director of the institute Boris Martynov turned out to be very modest as well. However, some of the exhibits hanging on the wall clearly bore witness that this is the office of a man seriously involved with Latin America.
