Belarus’ turnout with Russia 14% down over 2 years
Belarusian PM Andrei Kabyakou and his Russian counterpart Dmitri Medvedev discussed the negative trends in trade at a meeting in Moscow.
Belarus’ turnout with Russia has decreased by 14% in two years – from 43 to 37 billion dollars. The numbers were announced at a meeting of Belarusian PM Andrei Kabyakou and his Russian colleague Dmitri Medvedev on February 5.
"Unfortunately, our turnout has started decreasing for some objective or subjective reasons… We should discuss it and take measures to restore the peak indexes registered not so long ago,” BelaPAN quotes Kabyakou.
The Belarusian PM is very glad that Medvedev has agreed to work out a plan of coordinated actions to provide bilateral economic cooperation.
Kabyakou and Medvedev’s meeting was informal. A meeting of the Eurasian intergovernmental council will be held today, Alyaksandr Lukashenka and Vladimir Putin will meet in Sochi on February 8.
