Mr Chairman,
Thank you for the reception and your hospitality that we felt as soon as we arrived in your country.
We always talk as good friends and strategic partners. Our colleagues fully understand this. You mentioned that Russian representatives rarely visit Myanmar. We have felt this as well and are trying to improve the situation.
Our contacts have been developing intensively with your support, Mr Chairman. A regular session of the Russia-Myanmar Intergovernmental Commission on Trade and Economic Cooperation will soon take place in the Republic. A meeting of the Commission on Military-Technical Cooperation is scheduled to take place in Russia in August. A working group on energy was established at the St Petersburg International Economic Forum, which was attended by a delegation from Myanmar. Our ties are becoming more intensive. We expect to see a military delegation from Myanmar at the International Security Conference, the International Army Games and the Army-2022 International Forum in August.
