St. Petersburg Governor in DC

February 24, 2006


In late February 2006, Valentina Matvienko, Governor of the St. Petersburg oblast, visited Washington, D.C. to discuss matters of cooperation between the Russian and American governments.

Hosted by Rep. Curt Weldon (R-PA) and AFPC, Mrs. Matvienko met with several members of Congress during a luncheon at the Capitol.
 
Prior to her 2003 election, Mrs. Matvienko served as a Deputy Prime Minister of Russia as well as the Putin-appointed Presidential Representative of the Northwestern Federal District.
