Claim 7: “Trutnev previously announced plans to sign over 380 deals worth 6.5 trillion rubles ($78 bln) at the Eastern Economic Forum in 2026”

SINGLE SOURCE

While one web search result mentions agreements worth $79 billion for the 11th EEF, the specific claim about Trutnev announcing 380 deals worth 6.5 trillion rubles for 2026 is not corroborated by multiple independent sources in the provided evidence. Other results discuss different figures (3.4 trillion rubles by 2024).
