Vladimir Putin sent a greeting to those participating in the celebrations on the occasion of the 90 th anniversary of the Russian-British Chamber of Commerce

June 22, 2006

The message reads, in particular:

“Over the 90 years since the Russian-British Chamber of Commerce was established it has acted as an important tool to coordinate and develop commercial ties and investment cooperation between our countries. Thanks to constant support by its members, both Russian and British companies, the Chamber has made a powerful contribution to practical cooperation between our business communities.

Today Great Britain is one of Russia’s leading trade and investment partners. We value the volume of our bilateral cooperation. We expect that joint efforts will enable us to bring this cooperation to even greater heights and allow us to exploit the potential of our high-tech industries. Along with this, new possibilities for Russian-British projects and initiatives open the way to structural changes in the Russian economy, the development of the stock market, and reforms in the banking sector.”
