Belarus is a springboard allowing Korean companies to penetrate the market of the Customs Union, said Sung Moon Park, partner at the Korean legal firm DR & Aju Partners, advisor on international investment disputes at the Justice Ministry of Korea, President of the Korea-Belarus Friendship Association. He took part in the seminar dedicated to the 20th anniversary of establishing Belarus-Korea diplomatic relations in Minsk.
Talking about the bilateral economic cooperation, Counselor of Korea’s Embassy in Minsk Kim Jae Woo noted that Korea’s export to Belarus exceeded $58 million and Belarus’ export to Korean was estimated at $9.22 million in 2011. The total trade between the two countries exceeded $67 million.
Korea’s major exports to Belarus include petrochemicals, vehicles, pharmaceuticals, construction machines. The bulk of Belarusian exports to Korean were made of semiconductors and their parts, petrochemical products, farm machines and man-made fibers. “Korea and Belarus mainly deal in heavy industry and chemical products, high-tech products, which is beneficial for developed countries,” the Counselor of Korea’s Embassy said.
