Russia should take the best from its Western partners, but not copy them. This was stated by Russian President Vladimir Putin to the participants of the RSPP congress.
„Yes, of course, we understand all the advantages of our so-called Western partners - high technologies, organization of production. They have everything, it is true, they have achieved a lot, we must treat this with respect and take the best, but not copy“, he said.
The head of state also indicated that the slippage of “Western dominance“ and the emergence of new global growth centers is a long-term prospect. “This is what I want to emphasize“, Putin noted.
