The business meeting is occurring in a modern furnished conference room with white walls and light fixtures on the ceiling and in the corners of the room. At the center of the photo, a long table with eight people sitting around the table. Some are in Western business wear such as suit and ties, one person at the far end of the table wears an abaya and hijab, and one person on the right hand side of the table wears a thobe and ghitraa. There are some empty seats on the conference table. Each place at the table, whether occupied or empty, is set with a box of tissues, a plastic water bottle, and a glass bottle of mineral water. Each person has in front of them on the table also a clear cup of black tea on a saucer. On the wall behind the conference table are three frames with large photos of the rulers of Bahrain such as Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa. — Technotech deputy general manager Yaroslav Zhulanov (on the far left of the image in a blue suit and tie) on a visit to the Kingdom of Bahrain in 2019, with other members of the Moscow Chamber of Commerce.
