“I am confident that Belarus and Italy, as well as Belarus and the European Union, will be intensifying their cooperation in both economy and politics. We are happy that the dialogue between our countries, finally, will be actively developed.
Italy returned to the economic growth, which opens up new opportunities for Belarusian exporters aiming at the Italian market.
We are happy to develop cooperation with countries that are not our traditional markets, but are very promising in terms of trade. In this respect, Belarus is of much interest to us”.
