Russian Ambassador in Switzerland Sergei Garmonin spoke about Russian–Swiss bilateral relations, describing them as stable and promising: “Russia is ready to cooperate with every single country interested in doing so, in both the West and the East. This applies to cooperation in the areas of the economy, trade, investments, banking and any other sphere. We are open for cooperation with everybody who is ready to work in good faith, respect our values and traditions, balance mutual interests, negotiate and seek compromises.”

To conclude his speech, the Russian Ambassador invited the participants in the 2nd Russian–Swiss Workshop to visit the Russia House in Davos (22–26 November 2018).

The Roscongress Foundation will open the Russia House for the 48th Session of the World Economic Forum. “The Russia House will be the official Russian residence and a platform for promoting Russian initiatives among representatives of international business and official circles”, the Russian Ambassador stated.
