The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Industry delegation is going to visit Yekaterinburg in September 2008, the newly appointed U.S. Consul General in Yekaterinburg Timothy Sandusky said in the course of his meeting with Governor of Sverdlovsk Region Eduard Rossel.

‘We are interested in cooperating with the American companies and banks in all possible ways; the mid-Urals offer some virtually unlimited opportunities for business people. Besides, many thousand machines have to be replaced at our machine-building enterprises; we buy a lot of modern equipment in the United States, and our needs keep increasing every year,’ Eduard Rossel observed.
