In the framework of the Prime Minister’s official visit to meet Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, Mark Rutte will come to Nuffic Neso Russia to lay the foundation of the Netherlands Alumni Network in Russia. Supported by Nuffic Neso Russia, NANR started its activities one year ago. Within its first year NANR organised four alumni events; both professional and social.
