"The president will probably be there [at the SPIEF]. He has traditionally attended the St. Petersburg forum 12-13 times, [he] likes this forum and the city of St. Petersburg very much. I hope we will have a number of meetings. As for signing agreements, it is not clear now, but we will prepare," he said.
Prior to the forum, Dodik is expected to discuss gas price with Russian President Putin during his visit to Moscow on May 23.
The SPIEF will be held in St. Petersburg from June 14-17.
