Belarus is keen to develop co-operation with Israel Chemicals Limited, noted Belarus’ Prime Minister Andrei Kobyakov, as he met the President and Executive Director of the Israeli company, Stefan Borgas
Today Israel Chemicals Limited (ICL) is one of the largest manufacturers and exporters of products based on unique minerals. “For us the production of mineral fertilisers, primarily potassium fertilisers, is one of the key industries in the country’s economy. It would be beneficial for us to ‘synchronise watches’ and explore the possibilities for mutual partnership with this respected global company,” said the Head of Government.
The PM noted that Belarus views Israel as one of the most promising trade and economic partners. He believes that the trade turnover between the two countries is actively growing, but has not yet reached its full potential.
Mr. Kobyakov described how Israeli companies have recently begun to show a more active interest in entering into business agreements with the Republic of Belarus. “We welcome this interest and are ready to co-operate,” said the Prime Minister. He expressed the hope that the visit of the representatives of the Israeli company will serve as a new impetus for business development. “We hope that we’ll be able to find promising points of contact, which we can develop into areas for the growth of trade between our countries,” Mr. Kobyakov concluded.
