MINSK, NOVEMBER 24, ARMENPRESS: "I greet the current negotiation
process taking place within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group
toward the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict," President
of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko said today at the meeting with the
heads of the CIS state news agencies in Minsk.
According to him, the conflict must be solved in a peaceful way and it
is inadmissible to look at each other as "target points". "My greatest
wish is that the two countries themselves come to the settlement of
the conflict," the president of Belarus said.
With request of Armenpress, referring to the economic relations
between Armenia and Belarus, Lukashenko noted that if few years ago
they almost did not exist, now a certain progress is being registered.
The presidents of the two countries agreed to encourage the initiatives
of the businessmen of the two countries. He noted that recently he
has received a group of Armenian businessmen and came to certain
agreements. "We are greatly interested in boosting economic relations
with Armenia, though the absence of roads in some way impede their
development. Armenia's market is comparatively small but together
we have big opportunity to enter markets of third countries," the
president of Belarus said.
