The Speaker of the Council of the Republic Natalya Kochanova has met with Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Swiss Confederation to our country. As the speaker noted, the countries have a good potential for cooperation and confirmed the interest in the development of inter-parliamentary cooperation. The parties also discussed the current state and prospects of cooperation between Belarus and Switzerland in political, trade and economic, investment, humanitarian and other areas. Today, the main task is to find ways for dialogue in the current situation. And despite the sanctions policy, all efforts should be made for further development.
Natalya Kochanova emphasized that people are a priority for the country, so now it is important to find common ground, so that ordinary citizens did not suffer. Last year the trade turnover between Belarus and Switzerland amounted to more than 320 million dollars. The most important export items to Switzerland are electrical transformers, car bodies, fiberboard, stone and other mineral products. In February, the countries celebrated 30 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations.
