“Russia is rich in aquatic biological resources with significant advantages, which is widely welcomed in the Chinese market. We hope that in cooperation between the Russian and Chinese official institutions and fisheries associations that organised today’s event, we will establish a channel for interaction between Russian-Chinese aquatic enterprises, which, in turn, will help Chinese companies to obtain more information about high-quality Russian products. ” – he said.
