We are also ready to work with you on this project in the Kaliningrad Region," the governor added.
Alexey Besprozvannykh noted that, although delivery conditions have become more complex, suppliers are finding ways to resolve logistical issues.

The GS Group holding company, which produces electronics, is already collaborating with Integral, a major Belarusian manufacturer. "At INNOPROM, we discussed the need for further development," Alexey Besprozvannykh emphasized.
