“We must create additional growth points in the regions, as well as new industries and production lines. We must enter the world markets with science-intensive goods and services, as well as other products with high added value. The previously mentioned public-private partnership will play a major role in our efforts to achieve our development goals.”

"The construction industry is one of the most important to our economy, and to the economy of any developed nation. There are huge challenges before you – to build new industrial facilities, new roads, tunnels, bridges and other infrastructure. There are huge challenges in housing construction. In the near future we must double the number of housing built across the nation (up to 140 million square metres a year)".

“I would like to emphasise that the shortages of petroleum products and unstable prices should not stand in the way of economic growth or cause problems for the Russian people. We need a clearly understandable material balance of production and consumption for the main types of fuels and petroleum products.”

“We should seriously think about increasing refining volumes, specifically secondary processing, including such processes as isomerisation, reforming and cracking. We have taken a careful look into the latter here in Kirishi. All these processes make it possible to produce high-quality products that enjoy market demand. They ensure deep conversion levels and the world-class quality of our petroleum products.”

“Last year, we ranked first worldwide in oil production with 505 million tonnes, leaving even Saudi Arabia behind. We cannot allow our own people to experience shortages of oil or oil products in any part of the country. We simply must be more flexible in reacting to the changes that are taking place on the global and, hence, on the domestic market.”

“We should tackle the gridlocks in the rail infrastructure; secure transshipment of the Russian coal at seaports and border crossings; and create the additional capacity for boosting coal exports, specifically in the strategic Asia-Pacific area.”

“Obviously, the successful development of the power engineering industry will require good management decisions, long-term investment, effective financial support for projects, and tax incentives. We also need a customs policy that will stimulate the development of industry in Russia and one that does not function as a barrier to the import of foreign equipment and unique technology that we do not yet make and that consumers need so much”.

“Modern equipment is needed to ensure stable and reduced electricity prices that can minimise the costs of producing power, transporting energy resources and managing the grid. This is a crucial material factor besides the competitiveness of the industry, which is a purely economic factor”.

“Along with the development of the oil and gas industry, we must give new impetus to the coal industry, so this year, we should start full-scale development of the Elga deposit in South Yakutia. We will implement a project to create a modern export infrastructure for Sakhalin coal.”

“We must first of all encourage the purchase of machinery and equipment manufactured in Russia. In this regard, I believe we need to take greater advantage of the positive experiences we had in implementing our plans for the auto industry and create every condition to encourage manufacturers of agricultural machinery, including international companies, to develop production in our country.”
