Talks between the Presidents of Belarus and Russia will take place in Moscow today.

Alexander Lukashenko has already arrived in the Russian capital on a working visit. It is expected that the Heads of State will discuss the union programs (there are 28 of them), and the dialogue will be the final confirmation before signing the signigicant documents. The negotiations are to take place in just a few hours.

It is known that general agreement has been reached in all programs. Agreements in economic integration are among the most substantial. First of all, this concern unified tax legislation. In addition to social roadmaps, there are roadmaps on natural resources. Minsk and Moscow will continue to form a common oil and gas market. The experts are sure that sovereignty of the states will not suffer.

By the way, if the Presidents approve all 28 programs, then the documents are planned to be signed at the Supreme State Council of the Union State. Its meeting is scheduled for the second half of autumn. The governments will meet tomorrow in Minsk at the Union Council of Ministers.
