MOSCOW, October 8 - RIA Novosti. The United Construction Corporation (USC) has a special role in achieving technological sovereignty, economic growth and strengthening trade relations, noted Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

On Thursday, the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation held a meeting with USC General Director Andrei Puchkov.

“The results of your activities largely influence not only the connectivity of our territories, but also economic growth, opening up additional opportunities for industry, tourism, and other sectors. They also contribute to strengthening trade ties and achieving technological sovereignty,” the Russian Prime Minister noted.
