During the meeting, Oreshkin was asked whether the capital should be moved to Siberia to achieve comprehensive revitalization of the region.
Oreshkin commented: "First, it is necessary to create economically active centers and centers that are attractive in terms of living conditions and creating new job opportunities. Infrastructure, cities, etc., need to be built."
Oreshkin explained that in such a case, economic activity would naturally arise, and "relocation will not bring the effects you expect." He said that in order to improve the economic situation in Siberia, it is first necessary to transfer economic vitality, improve the quality of life, and increase investment.
Oreshkin added that some large Russian companies, such as RusHydro, have already moved their headquarters to Siberia.
