President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Good afternoon, colleagues.
Today, I suggest that we discuss measures for establishing an international payment system.
We are all aware that this is a serious task in the current environment and one of the biggest challenges we face. Overall, this work is progressing steadily, but it is important to address any issues promptly and to plan the steps necessary to overcome the difficulties that are being created outside our borders for us.
Let us get down to work.
