The mention of it, is expected to be contained in the final declaration.

“The terrorist attacks that have just gone through, and Russia, and France, have affected the entire world. The explosion in the Russian plane over the Sinai Peninsula, which claimed 224 lives, the mass murder of people in Paris is not a crime against one country. It a crime against the whole world. And resist the terrorists, we must act together. And that’s why events such as the APEC summit, strengthen our cooperation in all areas “, – said Dmitry Medvedev.

In the Asia-Pacific region now accounts for more than a quarter of Russia’s foreign trade. And until recently it was quite a small portion. But direct investment in our economy of Asia-Pacific countries, and vice versa, respectively, do not grow as fast as we would like. At present, their volume is about 10 billion dollars. To increase this figure, we, of course, actively assert joint investment funds. Such funds already exist with a number of countries – China, Japan, the Republic of Korea. Worked out the use of similar tools with other countries in the Asia-Pacific region “, – said Dmitry Medvedev.
