We are convinced that our joint, mutual cooperation with China in the sphere of space will be constantly developing and increasing.

We were given a 100-percent funding for the first time in 2005. At present, in connection with the president's demand that the deployment of the GLONASS system be expedited, we are specifying the program.

We fully support the policy of the Venezuelan president and the country's administration in space sphere.

The Russian Space Agency is prepared to cooperate with Venezuela in all space projects and is ready to help to train the main and reserve national astronauts.

The goal for 2006 is to reach a comprehensive agreement with the United States in the first half of the year on the ISS until 2011.

We are preparing agreements with Americans and Europeans which will allow the creation of a single global navigation system in the future.
