 Dear colleagues,
Annual meetings of the energy community on the platform of the Forum “Russian Fuel and Energy Complex in the XXI Century” have become a good tradition set up ten years ago.
Judging by the atmosphere developed over these years at the Forum, and such positive attitudes of its participants and guests, we must acknowledge that the MIEF has become a platform aimed to facilitate integration efforts of the social and expert energy community, businesses and authorities, as well as continuation of an extensive international energy dialog.
Energy has always been a key factor for the development of both national and global economy. And nowadays, under the conditions of globalization, this factor acquires a new life-changing meaning for future sustainable development of the entire human civilization.
With all my heart, I would like to wish all of you success on your way.
Valentin Mezhevich,
First Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Economic Policy
