Moscow, October 16 /Xinhua/ — Russia needs to build full energy sovereignty—from resource extraction and processing to the transportation of finished products. Russian President Vladimir Putin stated this Thursday, speaking at the international forum "Russian Energy Week."
"We need to actively shift the status of energy-producing countries from equipment buyers to technology leaders, and establish full energy sovereignty at the national level, from resource extraction and processing to the transportation of finished products," he said.
As Vladimir Putin noted, the Russian fuel and energy complex (FEC) is already underway to achieve technological leadership. "Essentially, this is a powerful driver of all domestic industry and science," the head of state emphasized.
According to him, Russia possesses enormous engineering potential and significant scientific and practical groundwork in the fuel and energy sector, which have stood the test of time and proven their effectiveness in harsh natural and climatic conditions. "We have the expertise, experience, and know-how to develop even in complex energy sectors and extract hard-to-recover reserves, which is especially important for the oil industry," the Russian leader stated.
Vladimir Putin assured that Russia is ready to develop energy technologies not only independently, but also with friendly states that understand the geopolitical risks. "A true partnership, based on the exchange of knowledge and experience, and the creation of industrial alliances. Moreover, the results of such a partnership should be shared by all those involved in this work," the Russian president added.
