General assembly of the International bureau of exhibitions (MBV).
Headed by the chairman of the government of the Russian Federation Michael
Kasyanov, it switched on the mayor of Moscow Jury Luzhkov, and also
The academician and Nobel winner Jores Alfyorov.

Has said in good English language convincing speech about
Advantages of Moscow in quality ustroitelnitsy Ð?Ð Ð Ð Ð -2010. It
Also declared, that the government of Russia and the mayoralty of Moscow have solved
On an equal footing to allocate 2 billion dollars on
Reconstruction of the All-Russia Exhibition Centre and its transformation into the ultramodern
The international expocentre.
The alarm in a hall among journalists was called also by occurrence
Miss Universe Oksana Fedorovoj who also has arrived to Paris
To support a nominee of Moscow.
Result of self-denying job of all Russian
To delegation there was a considerable strengthening of positions of Moscow before
Other competitors on reception of the right to carrying out
World's fair. As president MBV ZHil Noges has declared, chances
The Russian capital to become mistress Ð?Ð Ð Ð Ð -2010 "are
High ".
The Moscow part of delegation has spent last three days
Numerous meetings with representatives MBV, French
The authorities. As Jury Luzhkov, the French party has noticed
Showed the big interest and showed liking in
The relation of carrying out Ð?Ð Ð Ð Ð -2010 in Moscow. It is exclusive
It is important, as headquarters MBV is in France, under
Tour d'Eiffel shade.
However for the Russian capital a victory in difficult struggle for
World's fair is not so much business of prestige, how much
Economic calculation. As Jury Luzhkov, preparation has noted to
Ð?Ð Ð Ð Ð -2010 Becomes the largest infrastructural project
Capitals. As he said, except creation of the newest exhibition
Complex which is capable to become one of the largest
The international platforms of similar type, in Moscow will be
The new transport network, including a monorail is constructed. It
Will connect various parts of a city with the new All-Russia Exhibition Centre.
Reconstruction of all of three will be simultaneously spent
The international airports of Moscow, it is constructed in addition 20
Hotels, including tourist type. The considerable sums will be
Are invested in service sphere.
Thus Jury Luzhkov considers, that a forthcoming exhibition
Becomes "commercially profitable", despite large
Investments. As he said, sectors where will be are already clear
Private investments, including the foreign are involved. It
Building of new pavilions, sphere of services, erection of the new
Hotels. "However we understand, that such jobs, as
Building of new roads, the city can make only
The authorities at the expense of the city budget ", - were declared by the mayor.
Simultaneously Jury Luzhkov has underlined, that any of
The social projects, put in pawn in the General plan for development
Moscow till 2020 "will not suffer" as a result of Ð?Ð Ð Ð Ð -2010,
Moreover, the exhibition will give a powerful impulse to development of many
Municipal economy branches.
As a whole the Russian position as it has been stated on
Sessions, distinguished realism and advantage.
Our delegation had the highest level from all
Arrived, and also huge interest of the western private business
To Moscow and Russia as a whole, has played advantage of the Russian capital.
Simultaneously both Michael Kasyanov, and Jury Luzhkov have shown, that
They are perfect and self-denying lobbyists, when
It concerns national interests of Russia and its capital.
So, the mayor of Moscow has found a number of strong arguments in advantage
The Russian capital, Ð?Ð Ð Ð Ð -2005 will pass in Tokyo, and carrying out
The next World's fair in Shanghai can lead
To overweight in favour of one of continents. Moreover, in 2008
To year China holds the Olympic Games. One more argument in
Advantage of Moscow - more comprehensible climatic conditions for
Carrying out of an exhibition which should take place in the summer. In Shanghai
And especially in Mexico it is too hot in the summer and it is damp. Taken
Together all these arguments speak well for Russia.
Thus, chances of Moscow of carrying out in 2010
World's fair have increased following the results of the last session. That
Not less definitive decision will carry the political
Character as delegations represent the national
The states also operate according to instructions the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It
It will be already accepted next December.
