Finland is one of leading foreign partners of the republic, and though the trade turnover has decreased our business relations are on a high level, Minnikhanov said.

Finnish companies have high production excellence, and cooperation can be developed in engineering, energy, transport, construction, high technologies, educational and scientific spheres.
