"We have much to show and be proud of. But it is also important to present it beautifully and skillfully. And you have succeeded in this! Thank you very much! We have agreed to create the National Centre on the EXPO site; this has been decided. We will also be doing this in the regions of the Russian Federation. I would like it to be as vibrant as you have managed to do here," the President said.
