Meeting on the construction of the Eastern Siberia-Pacific Ocean oil pipeline (ESPO).

Participants:
"We have always proceeded from the premise that this project will create the necessary additional foundation for comprehensive socio-economic development of Eastern Siberia and the Far East. These regions abound in natural resources but need special attention of the government, more money, and higher business activity. This is exactly the project which will resolve this task."
