Rosoboronexport Deputy Director General, Igor Sevastyanov and 15 representatives of Russian companies specialized in military industry, including “Kalashnikov Concern,” “Rostec Corporation,” “Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation” and “Ruselectroincs,” attended the meeting from the Russian side.

He affirmed Rosoboronexport’s keenness, along with its partners and representatives, to actively participate in BIDEC 2017 and to enhance joint cooperation between Bahrain and Russia.
Al-Sa’ati expressed thanks and appreciation to Rosoboronexport’s officials for providing the opportunity to brief Russian companies on BIDEC 2017 and to promote Russian products in the Middle East.
He highlighted the development of the Bahraini-Russian relations, which was evident in the visit of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa to Moscow on September 5-7 last year, during which HM the King was the honorary guest of the Russian Army-2016 Expo. The visit also resulted in signing agreements and memorandums of understanding, most important of which was the establishment of the Joint Governmental Committee for commercial, economic, scientific and technological cooperation, as well as military cooperation.
The Sales director and the representative of “Clarion Events” gave a presentation of the exhibition, logistical and technical topics related to the participation of Russian companies, the spaces allocated to them and the number of participants from foreign countries.
The representatives of the Russian military companies raised questions and queries to the representatives of the Bahrain Defence Force, regarding logistic and technical topics.
