MOSCOW, May 14. /TASS/. Russia does not intend to isolate itself as it builds up its technological sovereignty, rather, it remains focused on win-win cooperation with foreign partners, President Vladimir Putin said at the congress of the All-Russian Public Organization Union of Machine Builders of Russia.
TASS has compiled the head of state's key statements at the congress.
Putin lauded Russia’s machine builders for their success amid all the obstacles and external pressure from unfriendly states.
"Despite all the difficulties in recent years, domestic machine builders are operating in challenging conditions, including the breakdown of ties with some foreign counterparties and external pressure from unfriendly countries. Nevertheless, in these circumstances, Russian companies, their managers, and employees are demonstrating flexibility and the ability to apply unconventional approaches," the President said.
In the context of sanctions, the national machine-building industry has even managed to gain new positions in both domestic and international markets.
