On the third day of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), Russian President Vladimir Putin will address the SPIEF plenary session.
According to a Kremlin's statement, on June 16 "there will be a big speech by the president and then a discussion."
The plenary session is scheduled to take place at 2 p.m. local time.
This year, more than 17,000 people from 130 countries and territories confirmed their participation in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, according to Russian presidential adviser and SPIEF executive secretary Anton Kobyakov.
The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum has been held since 1997, and since 2006 it has been held under the patronage and with the participation of the President of the Russian Federation. In 2020, the forum was canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic.
