Putin: the Moscow-St. Petersburg highway will pass through Tver and Veliky Novgorod.
“Advanced Russian developments in mechanical engineering, construction, communications and digital systems will also be in demand in creating a network of high-speed railways,” he said. He noted that highways will be built to Kazan and the Urals, to Rostov-on-Don, to the Black Sea coast, and to Minsk. Putin visited one of the sections of the M-12 Vostok highway near Kazan driving a KamAZ.
