ArmInfo. Issues of cooperation in jewelry were one of the many
considered at the session of the Armenian-Belarusian intergovernmental
Commission held at late September, Ambassador of Belarus to Armenia
Stepan Sukhorenko told ArmInfo.
"We have agreed that specialists of "Gomel Crystal" plant will
visit Armenia to learn craft from Armenian jewelers, taking into
account a powerful jewelry school available in Armenia. Cooperation
is the second direction of our collaboration. We process our diamonds,
however, there is no school in Belarus to make high-grade jewelry from
them. This school in Armenia is actually great, and we would like to
cooperate to make such jewelry also in Belarus. Moreover, we do not
rule out creation of joint enterprises in this sphere", he said.
According to Sukhorenko, the Belarusian party considers Armenia's
agriculture programme very prosperous. Small-scale farms have already
shown their inefficiency, and the farm amalgamation programmme,
as well as their processing through car-tractor stations, which is
successfully applied in Belarus, will zing up this sphere. "It is
of course expensive to supply our equipment to Armenia, however
it is quite prosperous to organize on-site assembly. Today, our
tractors with suspended-type units perform 3 - 5 operations, that is,
our technologies are very advanced and we would like to share our
experience with the Armenian partners", he emphasized.
Moreover, the ambassador said, there are very serious projects
in Armenia, including "North-South" transport project and the
highway widening project. Their implementation will require a heavy
pit equipment, and the joint intergovernmental commission is now
considering these issues. Moreover, the issue of supplies of Armenian
fish, as well as joint production of ecologically pure infant food
is also under consideration.
According to the data of National Statistical Service of Armenia, goods
turnover between Armenia and Belarus over the latest years increased
tenfold to $30 mln, upon the results of the first 7 months of 2010.
