MOSCOW, 30 June (BelTA) – Sanctions and pressure are no obstacles for Belarus and Russia. Together, the countries will overcome any difficulties, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko said at the plenary session of the fourth Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia on 30 June, BelTA has learned.
The head of state noted that Belarus develops cooperation with different regions of Russia. The country conducts joint agricultural projects even with Sakhalin.
“We cooperate with Sakhalin, and, needless to say, with other Russian regions, especially those that border on Belarus. Here, at the top, we do not know about all of these examples. You are working hard, like ants, in a good sense. I would like to thank you for that. You are doing a good job, keep it up and develop our common space to demonstrate to others that sanctions and pressure are no obstacles for us. We will overcome any difficulties,” Alexander Lukashenko emphasized.
