India and Russia have the potential to more than double their bilateral trade to $10 billion by 2010 by enhancing cooperation in areas of oil, gas, mining, technology, transport and energy.
“If we grow by 30 per cent per year, we might achieve the trade figure of $10 billion by 2010,” the visiting Russian Prime Minister Victor A Zubkov said at the meeting of the India-Russia Forum on Trade and Investment (IRFTI) jointly organised by the FICCI and CII here. India and Russia need to pay more attention to each other to expand their trade and investment basket, Zubkov said.
