DPM: Malaysia committed to expanding strategic ties with Russia, focus on renewable energy

KUALA LUMPUR, June 17 — Malaysia remains committed to expanding strategic ties with international partners, including Russia, in areas that can yield mutual benefit and contribute to sustainable development.

This commitment was conveyed by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof during a courtesy call by Russian Ambassador to Malaysia Naiyl M. Latypov at the Energy Transition and Water Transformation Ministry’s (Petra) headquarters in Putrajaya today.

“This meeting provided an opportunity for constructive discussion on strengthening bilateral cooperation, particularly in the field of renewable energy, which is gaining global attention.

“We also discussed preliminary preparations for my upcoming working visit to the Russian Federation, scheduled to take place in the near future,” he said in a Facebook post tonight.

Diplomatic relations between Malaysia and Russia were established in 1967.
