Officials from the Municipal Bureau of Commerce and representatives of Zhuhai Airshow Co Ltd attended Russia's premier aviation event at Zhukovsky International Airport to promote next year's Airshow China.

A promotional conference was also held during the exhibition to attract partnerships with large aerospace and aviation businesses in Russia to locate facilities in Zhuhai Aviation Industrial Park of Jinwan District.

Executive Deputy Mayor of Zhuhai Wang Qingli invited Russian firms to participate in Airshow China 2018 and said he looked forward to enhanced exchanges and cooperation with Russia.
