According to Lukashenko, priority for the Russian Federation and Belarus is to solve sensitive economic issues to ensure the well -being of the population. He also noted that two countries, thanks to their joint work, allegedly managed to overcome the undesirable consequences of Western sanctions. For his part, Putin stated that the Russian Federation should be satisfied with how bilateral relations with Belarus are built, mentioning the "record turnover" between countries.
"Last year, another 2021, we made a very good jerk in the development of trade and economic relations," Putin said. According to him, the turnover between the countries before the war in Ukraine increased by one third to $ 38. 5 billion. "This is a very good and significant figure, but in the nine months of this year it grew by another 10% to the base last year. And it is also very good," Putin said. "If we had a record last year, there is reason to consider that we will have a new record.
We will most likely go to the bar of $ 40 billion in trade turnover. " He also added that the Russian Federation is ready to develop atomic projects in Belarus. "They are ready to continue to develop this project, the blocks to build <…> The most important are ready to develop the industry, science, respectively. We also have such preliminary agreements," the President of the Russian Federation said. "And we have the appropriate plans for the space sphere," Putin said.
Recall that Lukashenko declared the need to avoid mistakes made after the collapse of the USSR. Belarus and the Russian Federation find answers to challenges and threats, despite "some roughness", the politician said. Earlier, Focus reported that in Germany it is afraid that Lukashenko will strengthen the support of Russian troops in Ukraine. The German Chancellor Representative suggested that Lukashenko could agree to give Putin his army for a new large -scale offensive on Ukraine.
