MOSCOW, Oct. 21 (Xinhua) -- Russia aims to increase the volume of non-resource, non-energy exports by 66 percent over six years compared to the 2023 level, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said Tuesday.
Speaking at the 13th International Export Forum "Made in Russia," Mishustin said Russia's non-resource, non-energy exports in the first half of this year accounted for more than 12 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP).
He noted that Russia is reorienting its exports toward emerging markets, while its cooperation with countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America is increasing.
Exports to these destinations exceeded 85 percent of the total imports in 2024, compared with 44 percent in 2021, Mishustin said, adding that the country is developing new logistics, including developing international transport corridors in the south and east. ■
