Moscow, April 16, Interfax - The Russian Culture Minister will encourage Russian museums and citizens to arrange a fundraiser to help rebuild the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris that has been devastated by a fire, the director of the ministry's museums department, Vladislav Kononov told Interfax on Tuesday.

"We will invite museums and all citizens who are not indifferent to what happened to organize a fundraiser to support the restoration, the rebuilding of Notre-Dame de Paris. I think it will be right. We will hold consultations with our museum institutions, and I think that they will support such an initiative.

It's in our genes to come to the rescue, to help those who are in trouble. A disaster has occurred in France today. It's a great tragedy, and it would be right to help as much as we can to restore this unique cathedral," he said.

A big THANK YOU to the Russians (now, post communist)

They can do what secular French and even secular USA
institutions probably won’t do.

Tragically, right now no one else on Earth probably has more experience restoring damaged or destroyed churches from that era. They’ve just spent more than a decade restoring churches destroyed during the Bolshevik era.

Russia is more Christian than the United States. Easy.

Russia extending yet another olive branch towards the West.

Will hubris prevent the Macron regime from accepting?

The Russians are great at restoration and have done incredible jobs on their own churches that were destroyed under communism or during WWII. The Orthodox and the rest of Russia universally despise pro-communist, pro-Islamist Francis, so this is a very generous gesture. (They loved BXVI though.)

Just wondering why demonic gargoyles would be placed on a “house of worship? Will these demonic statues be reunited with the reconstruction?

What have statues of baal, moloch, baphomet and the phoenix have to do with Christianity?

Talk about collusion. I believe the french government had wind that this was going to take place. Why else would they take out a bunch of the statutes last week? Now they have all these countries saying they are going to provide aid to rebuild it. It is almost like a go-fund-me project and the french love it. No money out of their coffers.
