The Republic of Tatarstan and the Czech Republic have close partnerships in various fields of activity. Once again, the republics showed interest in developing bilateral business relations. This time, a Czech delegation headed by Minister of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic Marta Novakova and representatives of industrial enterprises took part in the Tatarstan-Czech Business Forum, which was held as part of the “Mechanical Engineering. Metalworking. Kazan” exhibition.
A bilateral meeting was opened in the Sviyazhsk Hall of the Kazanskaya Yarmarka with the participation of Prime Minister of Tatarstan Aleksey Pesoshin and Czech Minister of Industry and Trade Marta Novakova. At the Forum, the parties discussed the potential of industrial, trade, and economic partnership.
The special Tatarstan-Czech joint working group for the coordination of trade and economic cooperation was established in 2011. During this period, several annual meetings of the working group took place, dedicated to cooperation in the areas of inter-parliamentary interaction, energy, transport, technical regulation, construction, agriculture, banking and insurance services, environment, and exhibition activities.
This year, the seventh meeting of the working group was held as part of the “Mechanical Engineering. Metalworking. Kazan” exhibition, while the issues of bilateral cooperation were focused on the engineering segment.
