    Belarus, Uzbekistan sign deal on visa-free trips

    By Andrei Fomin

    MINSK, January 20

    Belarus and Uzbekistan have signed an agreement on visa-free trips
    for their citizens, sources from the Belarussian Foreign Ministry
    reported on Thursday.

    The document was signed in Tashkent by Belarussian Deputy Foreign
    Minister Alexander Gerasimenko. The agreement will replace
    multi-lateral Bishkek agreements of October 9, 1992 on visa-free
    trips for CIS citizens.

    According to the Belarussian Foreign Ministry, the signing of that
    document was "necessitated by a need to replace multi-lateral
    agreements with bilateral, as it is easier to control their
    implementation, while amendments can be introduced more efficiently".

    Belarus has already signed similar agreements with Armenia, Moldova
    and Ukraine.
