MINSK, 6 November (BelTA) - Belarus and Armenia are set to step up
their trade and economic cooperation, First Deputy Foreign Minister of
Belarus Alexander Mikhnevich told media after the Belarusian-Armenian
ministerial consultations on 6 November.
"The participants of the ministerial consultations and the recent
meeting of the Belarus-Armenia intergovernmental commission for trade
and economic cooperation agreed that the present level of mutual trade
does not correspond to the potential the two countries have. We have
identified the ways to intensify the bilateral trade. Among them are
supplies of Belarusian agricultural equipment under leasing terms,
cooperation in the innovation area and possible opening of assembling
plants in Armenia. We also welcome Armenian products on the Belarusian
market. Belarus and Armenia will be complementary in trade," Alexander
Mikhnevich said.
He praised the two-year operation of the Belarusian Trading House
in Armenia, noting that it is some sort of a driving force for
implementation of the most promising ideas in the trade and economic
cooperation.
Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan stated that the ministerial
consultations "demonstrated the mutual interest in stepping up
all-round relations." "I would like to emphasize a high level of the
political dialogue between Belarus and Armenia. We are both interested
in strengthening economic and interregional cooperation," he said.
