President of Belarus met with Governor of Lipetsk region of Russia

Alexander Lukashenko noted that trade turnover between Minsk and Lipetsk has reached $330 million. Yet, a more ambitious goal is set – a half a billion. The Belarusian leader expressed hope that the index will be achieved in the near future. Development of industrial cooperation and technological sovereignty are the key avenues for the Belarus-Russia relations. Work on import substitution is also carried out actively. A significant project in cooperation with the Lipetsk region is construction of an assembling plant of Belarusian municipal machines "Amkodor" based on Lipetsk tractor works. A program of electric transportation development is being implemented in the Russian region, as well. Belarus is ready to deliver a full model range of passenger and agricultural machines there. Interaction in agriculture has a big potential, too. In particular, programs on modernization of grain dryer complexes, deliveries of elite seeds, fodders and additives. Along with it, the Belarusian experts are ready to assist in design and construction of facilities of any complexity.
