MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev signed a plan on Wednesday setting out short- and long-term goals for the nation’s industrial development.
"It is a strategy for developing the industry and construction up until 2020, with outlooks up to 2030. We need to be open to new prospects [of development] in order to prevent the building industry from losing its impetus," Medvedev said at a government meeting in Moscow.
The head of state warned that the nation’s struggling economy depended heavily on progress in the construction industry.
