“We have discussed all the issues that needed to be addressed, both one-on-one and, especially, together with the participation of our delegations [the talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin during the recent official visit to Russia]. The Russian president gave the corresponding instructions on both gas and oil issues. He told me the following day that he talked to Sechin about oil refining matters. This means that we just need to finalize these issues, to work out the pricing formula and so on,” the head of state said.
Aleksandr Lukashenko also gave a number of instructions on the work of deputy prime ministers in the implementation of the plans of Belarusian-Russian cooperation. “The embassy should be involved in this work to the full,” he added.
As BelTA reported earlier, Aleksandr Lukashenko's official visit to Russia took place on 13-14 March. The heads of state communicated a lot both officially and informally.
