The Russian Federation has strong prospects for cooperation with the People’s Republic of China in the field of small-scale mechanisation, stated Oleg Moskovsky, President of the Interregional Special Machinery Exchange “Moscow – Beijing” and Head of the Council for Strategic Partnership in Mechanical Engineering “Russia – China”, during the 3rd International Forum “SPROUTS: Russia and China – Mutually Beneficial Cooperation”. He noted that the country is currently experiencing a shortage of machinery designed, for example, to maintain lawns, pavements and public spaces.
“For the past 20–25 years, localisation in the automotive industry has been both widely theorised and implemented in practice. Our country and its automotive sector have gained substantial experience in working with foreign partners. Today, this experience has been consolidated, and specific requirements and mechanisms have been developed to ensure that localisation is achieved not merely on paper, but in reality. This information has been presented to our Chinese colleagues. We are open to cooperation,” said Sergey Shishanov, Head of the Department for Cooperation with Industrial and Educational Partners at the Research and Educational Centre of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise NAMI.
He recalled that the Republic of Tatarstan is home to both vehicle assembly plants and extensive clusters of automotive component suppliers. According to him, the republic ranks among the leading regions in Russia’s automotive industry.
“The Council for Strategic Partnership in Mechanical Engineering between Russia and China was established with the support of the Republic of Tatarstan, represented by the Tatarstan Investment Development Agency. Every effort has been made to ensure that Tatarstan becomes a leader in mechanical engineering and localisation,” added Oleg Moskovsky.
