“We will hold the forum for the 11th time. I want to remind everybody that we are holding it not just as an event and the opportunity to bring people together, but to have additional possibilities for developing the Far East. The President’s instructions issued following the forum provide a powerful impetus for the macro region’s development. <…> It is our duty to show all the world that we are moving forward and are open for economic cooperation and establishment of humanitarian and cultural ties,” underscored Yury Trutnev.
