September 30, Vitebsk / Diana Kurilo - BELTA /. Russian journalists proposed to make Polotsk an all-Orthodox shrine. They voiced their idea today at a press conference of the Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee Alexander Kosinets in Vitebsk, BELTA correspondent reports. Yuri Sluyanov, General Director and Editor-in-Chief of the "Young Culture of Siberia" ​​television and radio company from Novosibirsk, admitted that for him Polotsk, the birthplace and place of deeds of Saint Euphrosyne of Polotsk, has long become such a place. In his opinion, the ancient city deserves to be a place where Orthodox pilgrims from all over the world flock, like Medina. Alexander Kosinets agreed that Polotsk's fame is well-deserved. "However, we do not know how to advertise ourselves, we do not know how to glorify our shrines," the governor said with bitterness. This work is necessary, it is just beginning, he added. -0-
