The President of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon has conducted negotiations with his Russian colleague Dmitry Medvedev and completed his visit in Moscow. The meeting in Kremlin turned to be very productive for both sides. Upon the results of the negotiations Emomali Rahmon and Dmitry Medvedev have signed a joint communiqué. The document contains information concerning the stable growth of trade turnover and the intention to expand the cooperation of Russia and Tajikistan in trade and economic, scientific and technical sectors. The heads of states again confirmed their interest in the construction of Rogun HPS and mini hydroelectric stations. During the negotiations sides have also discussed the fuel and energy sectors, geological explorations and the development of natural gas fields in Tajikistan.
The issue concerning the rent for the territory occupied by the Russian military base still remains open. Most likely until 2014 everything will remain as it is now. No one will pay the rent for now. Dmitry Medvedev assured Emomali Rahmon that Russia will introduce new migration rules, which will simplify the presence of Tajik migrants on the territory of Russia. Russia and Tajikistan are strategic partners. The presidents are satisfied with the results of the negotiations conducted in the mood of mutual understanding and trust. Emomali Rahmon has invited Dmitry Medvedev to visit Tajikistan with a state visit at any possibly opportunity.
