«I have been well acquainted with the team that is now working at the Fund for Sustainable Development since the time when they were with the ROLL Program (19972005). Thanks to their activities, a multitude of projects benefiting the country's natural environment was fulfilled in Russia's regions during these years. I think that it is very important that regardless of all the good and bad things that are happening around us, the Fund for Sustainable Development is continuing with its activities in a quite sustainable manner. I hope that in the future it will be able to raise new resources and keep on with the national geography of its projects.»
