"The expo is buzzed with a lively crowd and a vibrant atmosphere. Weaving through the dazzling array of booths required careful steps to avoid bumping into others," Jiao Jian, executive president of Heilongjiang Commerce and Investment Chamber for Russia and vice president of multinational company Xuanyuan Industrial Development Co, who just attended the 10th China-Russia Expo in Harbin, Northeast China"s Heilongjiang Province, told the Global Times on Wednesday.
Themed "Trust, Cooperation, and Mutual Benefit," the five-day event which lasts from May 17 to 21 covers an exhibition area of 55,000 square meters and features over 1,500 enterprises from 46 countries and regions.
Multiple Chinese and Russian companies interviewed by the Global Times recognized the opportunities brought about by the largest exhibition event between the two countries, expressing willingness to deepen long-term cooperation and inject stability and new momentum into the world economy while maintaining industrial and supply chain stability between the two countries.
"Attending the expo for the third time, my strongest impression is that exchanges between Chinese and Russian enterprises are much more active than in previous years. Many Russian companies are more willing to come to China - not just to attend exhibitions, but to seek business partners, understand local markets, and do long-term business," Evgeny Bazhov, chief representative of Russian Export Center Joint Stock Company (REC) in China, told the Global Times on Wednesday.
