Cooperation between Belarus and St. Petersburg is comprehensive and systemic in nature. There are all the prerequisites for expanding cooperation in the industrial sector. There is successful experience of industrial cooperation - the joint production of lift equipment. This is another area with potential reserves for expanding interaction.
Belarus also has something to offer St. Petersburg shipbuilders in terms of equipment and components. Belarusian food products are known and loved in St. Petersburg. The distribution networks for their sale are constantly expanding. Just last week, another retail outlet under the Belarusian Village project opened in the Russian city.
There has been a significant stepping-up of contacts in the humanitarian sector.
In recent years, cooperation in science, education and tourism has become stable and dynamic. The theme of preserving and popularizing the shared heroic and patriotic heritage is always in focus.
The one-on-one meeting preceded a session of the Belarus-St. Petersburg Business Cooperation Council.
Cooperation issues were discussed at a meeting between Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko and Alexander Beglov.
