Based on the Memorandum, the Presidential Library is actively developing cooperation with the Chongqing Library. Among the most significant projects, the exhibition of Russian-Chinese photo documents, dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the victory in the Second World War, and the filming of a documentary about the activities of the Presidential and Chongqing libraries, are worth mentioning.
