Prime Minister Vladimir Putin had a meeting with World Bank President Robert Zoellick
"Today we see the Bank, above all, not as a source of funding but rather as an institution from which we can obtain additional knowledge, know-how and some recommendations on the development of our financial and economic policy and on some areas that are important to us. At the same time your support of our efforts to improve governance, support of the private sector in Russia and some other areas – direct support – is also very important."
