“Russia Open to Economic Cooperation, Including with Western Companies – Peskov”.

According to the press secretary of the Russian President, Dmitry Peskov, Russia is ready for mutually beneficial cooperation with all states.

“Russia remains open to mutually beneficial cooperation with all states,” Peskov noted.

In addition, he said, the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum is open to those interested in economic cooperation with the Russian Federation.

“It is open precisely to those who are interested in economic relations,” Peskov noted.

According to him, foreign companies from Europe and the United States have previously expressed interest in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, but not publicly.

Russian media, citing the Roscongress Foundation, report that a number of American companies intend to participate in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, which will be held on June 18-21, and applications have already been accepted.
