“Today is a special day. It is not just the opening of the expo; it is, first of all, the day that unites nations, cultures, customs and economy. This is a period of a lifetime with the history being made beneath our eyes, with the most important business contacts being established and developed, with state cooperation being strengthened and cultural ties being expanded,” Nikolai Snopkov said.

On behalf of Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko, Nikolai Snopkov expressed sincere gratitude to China for a great opportunity to display the Belarusian national exposition at the expo. “Our exposition will showcase a number of companies that have gained recognition in Europe, Middle East and the United States. Thanks to the China-Eurasia Expo, Chinese partners will have a chance to familiarize the Asian region with the sci-tech achievements and industrial potential, learn about investment advantages and reaffirm the importance of developing relations with China for Belarus,” Nikolai Snopkov said.

In his words, the motto of the Belarusian exposition is China and Belarus – Strategic Partnership and Trust. The Deputy Head of the Belarus President Administration believes that “these are the words that can describe the friendly relations between the two countries, nations and mutually beneficial cooperation between businessmen.”

The Belarusian national pavilion has displayed the State Science and Technology Committee, the China-Belarus Industrial Park Great Stone, Belneftekhim Concern, Belarusian Potash Company, BelAZ, Gomselmash, Dzerzhinsky agricultural company, and also Kommunarka, Spartak, Slodych and other big companies.
