MOSCOW, June 2 (RIA Novosti) - Guatemala hopes to establish cooperation with Russia in oil refining and mining, the Central American country’s deputy energy and mines minister, Alfredo Pokus, said on Monday.

A delegation of Guatemalan government officials led by Pokus and Deputy Foreign Minister Lars Pira arrived in Moscow on a working visit on June 1 to discuss bilateral trade and economic cooperation. The delegation is expected to attend the St. Petersburg Economic Forum scheduled for June 6-8.

“We intend to increase the volume of oil refining, and would like to invite Russian government representatives to visit our country to check our surveys related to the oil industry,” Pokus told reporters.
