Russian Ministry of Trade and Industry changed timeline for the International Maritime Defense Show (IMDS) to be held in St. Petersburg in 2013.
According to the exhibition's organizer JSC
Morskoy Salon, Ministry of Trade and Industry addressed a proposal to Federal Service for Military Technical Cooperation (FSMTC) to postpone period of the show for July 3-7, 2013.
Such time displacement is related to overlapping with time schedule of St. Petersburg International Economic Forum in June 20-22 determined by the presidential decree No. 1942 dated July 27, 2012. Due to insufficient time for redesigning of the exhibition hall, it was needed to change timeline of the naval exhibition, reported press service of JSC
Morskoy Salon.
