“Our countries have great potential.

We must strive to expand the range of trade, implement projects in the energy, transport, agricultural sector, geological exploration, ”she said.

At the same time, Matvienko noted that space has become a new sphere of interaction between Russia and Bahrain.

For example, in May, a memorandum of understanding was signed between Roscosmos and the Bahrain National Agency for Space Sciences on cooperation in the field of peaceful space exploration.

“The work in the intergovernmental commission on trade, economic, scientific and technical cooperation is being systematically carried out,” she added.

Earlier, Matvienko, at a meeting with Vietnamese President Nguyen Xuan Phuc, spoke about relations between Russia and Vietnam.
