Russian President Vladimir Putin has sent a greeting to the participants, organizers, and guests of the 6th ‘Arctic: Territory of Dialogue’ International Arctic Forum, which will take place on 26–27 March in Russia’s Arctic zone.
In his greeting, Vladimir Putin noted that the meeting is being held for the first time in Murmansk – a city that could rightly be considered Russia’s gateway to the Arctic.
The Forum will bring together representatives of government bodies, prominent scientists, and experts. Together, they will engage in comprehensive discussions on regional security and cooperation, as well as support for groundbreaking projects in energy, infrastructure, and environmental protection.
There will also be the opportunity to share views on the potential to implement crucial research and cultural programmes. “The theme of this year’s Forum, To Live in the North, fully reflects one of our key priorities for the development of the Arctic – the comprehensive renovation and provision of public amenities in cities and towns, the improvement of people’s quality of life. This will be achieved first and foremost through the creation of modern jobs, further economic revival, and a boost to the social sphere. The Russian Arctic offers a wealth of opportunities for growth and progress. It is a place where the skills and talents of young people can be put to use along with the expertise offered by professionals across various specializations. It is a place where bold entrepreneurial, scientific, and creative initiatives can be brought to life. And we are committed to working together with all interested partner nations and intergovernmental organizations in this major endeavour,” Vladimir Putin said in his greeting.
Vladimir Putin highlighted the importance of improving the region’s transport network, including the port, railway, and aviation sectors, and establishing year-round navigation along the Northern Sea Route. The Russian president expressed confidence that the Forum participants would hold substantive and constructive discussions, and that the ideas and recommendations put forward by its participants would play a key role in shaping practical solutions.
