Chairperson of the Council of the Federation Valentina Matvienko noted the high level of professionalism and coordination shown by the Assembly's organisers, and thanked all involved for a job well done. "It is the shared opinion of all participants that this Assembly, in terms of its scale and success, has no precedent in the more than one-hundred-year history of the Inter-Parliamentary Union. I am confident that the forum will become a bright page in the history of international parliamentary cooperation, and will doubtless strengthen Russia's standing on the international stage", she remarked.

A film on the achievements and outcomes of the 137th Inter-Parliamentary Union Assembly was prepared at the conclusion of the event. It includes some introductory information about the host city, St Petersburg , parliamentarians' impressions of the Assembly, clips from key events in the business programme, and a kaleidoscopic presentation of major events in the accompanying cultural programme.

An English-language version of the concluding film is available at the following link: https://yadi.sk/i/71E81PzD3PNWt9
