General Electric Company said Thursday it was in talks with Russia's state-run technology company to produce medical equipment in Russia.
"We can confirm that we are now in negotiations with Russian Technologies with the aim of producing high-tech medical equipment in Russia," GE spokesman Arvind Gopalratnam told DOTmed News. "It is too early, however to discuss further details."
