Russia strives to build its economic policies in the Asia and Pacific region primarily through APEC mechanisms, President Vladimir Putin announced at a Business summit of this organization

October 19, 2003

The course for further development of cooperation with countries in the Asia and Pacific region is Russia’s conscious decision. It was made because of the growing interdependency of the world, and because this region is today one of the most dynamically developing.

The President expressed the hope that colleagues in the APEC will see Russia as a reliable and promising partner, which actively develops its trade and economic ties with all the countries of the region.
