Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko held talks with Governor of Russia's Chelyabinsk Region Alexei Teksler. Bilateral trade is growing extremely rapidly, by 20% this year alone. There are also large-scale plans for 2023, especially in the field of import substitution. Belarus invites partners to share their experience in the agro-industrial complex, construction, science, and humanitarian sphere. As Alexander Lukashenko noted, Minsk is a reliable partner and all agreements will be strictly implemented.
