Moscow, October 21 /Xinhua/ — Russia is open to honest dialogue and mutually beneficial trade, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said at the plenary session of the International Export Forum "Made in Russia."

"We are open to honest dialogue and mutually beneficial trade. We certainly have much to offer our international partners," the head of the Russian government noted.

M. Mishustin emphasized that the main goal of exports is to modernize industries, increase efficiency, and create jobs. He stated that despite sanctions, non-resource exports accounted for over 12% of GDP in the first half of 2025, and the share of the ruble in transactions exceeded 50%, strengthening the economy and stimulating investment. Demand for Russian products remains strong, and there is a shift toward the markets of the Eurasian Economic Union, the Commonwealth of Independent States, BRICS, and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

The Russian Prime Minister noted that products from Russian manufacturers are purchased not only by traditional partners but also by countries classified as "unfriendly" states. In the first six months of this year alone, these countries purchased Russian goods worth over $25.5 billion.

On October 21, the 13th International Export Forum “Made in Russia” was held in Moscow. This annual event for Russian exporters has been held since 2012. –0–
