¡¡ ¡¡BEIJING, Oct. 15 (Xinhuanet) -- An environmental probe report on the Russian Far East oil pipeline will be finished in the coming two months. The pipeline's route will then be fixed.

    Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Zhukov made the remarks during an interview on the first meeting of Sino-Russian entrepreneurs' council here Friday.
