The telegram reads, in part:
Over the past few years, this forum has proved its sustainability becoming a traditional event, one that the professional community looks forward to every year. Once again, it has drawn international scientists, experts, government officials and business leaders, to a thorough and detailed discussion of important issues pertaining to nature conservation, such as building an international environmental security system, and improvement of the legal frameworks for using natural resources.
An effective solution to these problems is crucial for sustainable socio-economic development in many countries, for global environmental security, for the preservation of our planet's invaluable wildlife, and most importantly, for people's lives and health.
I am confident that this congress will provide a perfect opportunity for sharing opinions and drafting practical recommendations.
