I'm astonished that the current Russian government allows this museum to be open and I hope that a mis-targeted Russian missile won't fall there it in the future.
Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher, regarded as a central figure in the Enlightenment movement and one of the most important philosophers in history.
Kant advocated for a republican form of government based on the principles of freedom, equality, and the rule of law. Kant emphasized the importance of a constitutional republic, where governmental power is separated and balanced among different branches. He argued that this system would prevent the concentration of power and provide checks and balances to safeguard against abuses.
Moreover, Kant proposed the idea of "cosmopolitan right" in his work on perpetual peace. He suggested that nations should enter into a federation of states to establish lasting peace and prevent conflicts. Kant envisioned a world governed by a set of universal principles and international laws that would regulate relations between nations and ensure the protection of individual rights.

Его пояснения открыли многие подробности судьбы собора. Нам рассказали о перспективах и утратах. Мы заглянули к нему в мастерскую, где смогли взглянуть на ещё находящиеся в процессе создания работы. Экскурсия длилась чуть больше часа. Стоила 500 рублей. Далее нас ждал авторский проект Евгения Авраменко «Орган. Посвящение в тайну». Евгений органист собора и весьма заслуженный музыкант и при этом очень живой и непосредственный человек, легко находящий общий язык со своими слушателями. Его рассказ был понятен и интересен даже такому далёкому от музыки человеку, как я. Мы заглянули в чрево большого органа, попытались сыграть на органе. Настоятельно рекомендую обе...
