Technological and investment cooperation should be engine of cooperation between Belarus and China

21 августа 2016

This is the leitmotif of the negotiations that took place in Minsk on Thursday. The mutual trade turnover between the two countries now exceeds the mark of three billion dollars, and the level of credit and investment cooperation is close to 20 billion. The most ambitious project is, of course, the industrial park "Great Stone". Another important step in the development of relations will be made at the end of September. Just at this time the state visit of Alexander Lukashenko to China is scheduled.

Minsk and Beijing established a comprehensive strategic partnership. This year, Alexander Lukashenko and Xi Jinping met a couple of months ago at the summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. Last year, Chinese President arrived in Minsk on an official visit. One of the results of the negotiations: Belarus will give more preference to residents of the park "Great Stone". The Ministry of Economy is currently preparing the relevant draft decree.
