China sees Belarus as “key platform for large-scale projects”

Belarus and China seek to double mutual trade, Alexander Lukashenko, President of Belarus, said during his meeting with Xi Jinping, President of the People's Republic of China, on May 10, in Minsk.

“The new package of agreements will provide a powerful impetus for our cooperation in various fields, first of all, in construction and modernization of the infrastructures in Belarus, as well as inter-bank cooperation, technical and economic, credit and investments cooperation,” he said. The documents look to double mutual trade, exchange of technologies, boost research and technical innovations and strengthen ties in the military-technical field.

“The two countries have reached a new level of participatory development that implies a shift from the credit to the investment cooperation,” Lukashenko said. According to him, Minsk supports the idea of Silk Road Economic Belt and the Sea Silk Road of the 21st century. “I am sure Belarus will become the key platform in implementation of these large-scale projects in the Eurasian region,” Lukashenko said.
He recalled that Belarus is criticized for its certain stands and even warned against isolation. “However, isolation is impossible if the country has good friendly relations with China,” Lukashenko said.
