Matters discussed at the meeting were the plans to restructure the Molot factory in Kirov for its use as a base for an industrial park to host projects from joint ventures. The prime minister called on Nikita Belykh and Sergei Chemezov “to keep up the pace and not waste time” and emphasised that all financial issues should be settled as soon as possible.
Mr Putin and Mr Davydenko discussed the start of navigation season and river shipbuilding. The Prime Minister was told that navigation season opened 5-7days earlier than it had been scheduled. The number of the ships that sailed through the main passages exceeded the last year’s figure by 15-17%. This year an order for river ships worth 12 billion Roubles will be made.
