Minsk has received the Friendship City award for its outstanding partnership with China

The award presentation ceremony took place in the city of Xian during the "China Friendship Cities" international conference. A key symbol of this long-standing friendship is the construction of two facilities in Minsk: an international-standard swimming pool and a national football stadium. The "Great Stone" Industrial Park, which hosts over 180 resident companies, stands as the largest joint Belarusian-Chinese project and a true gem of the Silk Road. Furthermore, universities from both nations maintain a robust educational dialogue. The Minsk City Executive Committee noted that this year marks the 10th anniversary of the establishment of sister-city relations between Minsk and Beijing.
