Lavrov: Moscow wholeheartedly against any borders between Belarus and Russia

      Moscow is in favor of having no borders between Belarus and Russia. Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergei Lavrov made the statement during the press conference held to sum up results of Russian diplomatic work in 2017. Sergei Lavrov said: “In order to have a transparent border, our actions should be synchronized. Actions concerning the life of people within the framework of the Union State of Belarus and Russia as a whole should be synchronized, too.”

“We would like no unilateral steps taken in relations of our countries,” noted the Russian minister of foreign affairs. “This is why we have suggested negotiating the approval of the agreement on the mutual recognition of visas. It is nearly ready and I hope it will be passed soon. We are ready for it.”
