These leaders’ messages warmed our youth

  "You young people are full of vigor and prosperity, like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. Hope rests on you."

  On November 17, 1957, Lenin Hill, Russia, in the auditorium of Moscow University, a full house of vigorous Chinese students listened to Chairman Mao Zedong’s affectionate message.

Time flies, this famous discourse has been repeated repeatedly, lingering in the ears of generations of young people.

  On December 30, 2017, the Chinese students of Moscow University received a special reply letter, in which they revisited Chairman Mao Zedong’s sincere message 60 years ago, and also read the ardent expectations of Chairman Xi Jinping——

  "If the younger generation has ideals, skills, and responsibilities, the country has a future, and the nation has hope."

  "Dedicating the learned skills to the motherland and people, let the light of youth shine on the road of fighting for dreams."

  ...

  Over the past sixty years, the leaders’ words are full of affection, inspiring generations of young people to move forward.
