Belarus entrepreneurs seek help from Ukraine's leadership

Small-size entrepreneurs from across Belarus have sent letters to the Ukrainian president and prime minister, reports Belapan.
In the view of entrepreneurs, the Belarus president's decree No760 has "interrupted business ties between entrepreneurs in Belarus and Ukraine"".

"Entrepreneurs from all the regions in Belarus are willing to meet and discuss the issue of mutual cooperation, namely the construction of wholesale markets within the 5-km zone from the border with Belarus", writes the letter.

Under the decree, sole entrepreneurs are banned from hiring other workers than those from amongst close relatives.
