Contracts worth tens of billions of dollars were signed with Russia at the St. Petersburg forum.

Omissions

• The exact dollar figure varies between sources ($84 bn, $88 bn, $90.43 bn) due to fluctuating ruble-dollar exchange rates at the time of reporting.
• SPIEF's published totals refer to 'agreements' (соглашения), which encompass a broad range of instruments — including non-binding memoranda of understanding, letters of intent, and framework agreements — not all of which are legally binding contracts.
• The total includes both international and domestic Russian agreements; the MEP's phrasing 'with Russia' could imply exclusively foreign deals, whereas the SPIEF aggregate includes contracts between Russian entities themselves.
• The official SPIEF website reports a slightly different figure: 1,127 agreements totaling 6.76 trillion rubles, suggesting the final count was still being consolidated at the time of the MEP's speech.
