MINSK, 18 June (BelTA) – Belarus invites Egypt to establish a more active transfer of knowledge in healthcare, engineering sector, IT and many other areas, Chairman of the Council of the Republic Mikhail Myasnikovich said at a joint meeting between the leadership of the Belarusian parliament with Egypt President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi on 18 June, BelTA has learned.
