"One of them can definitely be called historic. This is an agreement on the free trade zone in services and investment. Belarus is the first country in the Eurasian Economic Union with which China concludes such an agreement," the president said.
Belarus hopes that in the next five years, thanks to the transparent and predictable rules, Belarus’ export of services to China will grow by at least 12-15% and investments in Belarus - by at least 30%.
