Our students from Turkmenistan, Egypt and Yemen participated in the communication and leisure program “Secrets of Arts”, which was held at the Belarusian Trade and Economics University of Consumer Cooperatives. At the event students from Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Belarus presented their national cuisine: Turkmen samsa, manti, Tajik kurutob, burakcha, pilaf, Belarusian pancakes and potato pancakes with sour cream. At the end of the event, all participants and guests could taste the national dishes, masterfully prepared by students themselves.

Also the students showed their skills in the artistic part of the program. Our students of the Economics and Humanities Faculty Kurbandurdyyeva Guncha and Begenjova Maysa performed the Turkmen dance and read the verses of Magtymguly, the classic Turkmen literature poet, in Turkmen language. Tajikistan students of BTEU performed their national dances and Belarusian students sang a lyrical song about Belarus.

The national costumes from Tajikistan were demonstrated to the audience who had the opportunity not only to admire the products of Tajik masters, but also to get acquainted with the national characteristics and purpose of the Tajik national clothing. National costumes of Yemen students of the Preparatory Department aroused great interest among the guests and participants of the event.

At the end students from different countries communicated with each other, exchanging contacts, making friends and taking a lot of photos.
