"...I
want to stress once again that all of the strategic social and
economic development projects in the Urals Federal District must
continue, including those concerning the development of the
Polar and Pre-Polar
Urals. One of the most well-known of the projects already prepared
is the "Ural
Promyshlenniy - Ural Polyarniy" project
(Industrial Urals-Arctic Urals).
This is a very forward-looking project that aims at
streamlining the relations between the main links in the industrial
production chain in the Urals, developing the minerals and raw
materials resources of the eastern slopes of the Urals, supplying
raw materials to the metals and machine-building enterprises of the
mid and southern Urals, and increasing the entire region’s economic
and social stability in general".
