MINSK, 17 November (BelTA) – Belarus is ready to supply the necessary amounts of food to Russia at competitive prices, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko said at a press conference for Russian regional mass media on 17 November.
“For us Russia is the premium market today. The Russian leadership requests us to supply certain amount, especially during the autumn-winter period. We even redirect exports from other markets in favor of Russia,” the head of state noted
The President noted that the Belarusian products are in demand. Belarus exports its goods to various regions of the world. There is an interest on the part of the United Arab Emirates. Representatives of Russian regions may apply to any manufacturer.
“Most important thing is to exclude intermediaries. If we have five intermediaries in the supply chain what the final price will be I wonder?” Alexander Lukashenko noted stressing that if there is a desire to buy Belarusian goods that are competitive in quality and price, Belarus is ready to meet the demand.
