Moreover, as the Head of State noted, there is great potential for the development of trade with Tajikistan, specific areas in which should be added in co-operation,
“The main thing for any ambassador is trade-economic relations. We have no problems with politics with Tajikistan, as well as in other countries where you will go”.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs must help through Russia and BRICS. Russians can help in many areas, especially in Brazil and especially now, when they are trying to assist us at many levels amidst the sanctions. It’s a difficult period for them, just as it is for us. But, as you can see, we are coping. I think we will handle it. And Brazil should be one of the main states on this list, thanks to which we can feel more stable here,” noted Aleksandr Lukashenko.
“As far as Korea is concerned, we really need to liaise with it. Now, together with the Foreign Ministry, we need to collaborate and outline the main directions of our co-operation. They are meeting halfway. They are interested in this huge platform in the centre of Europe. Therefore, we need to maintain relations with them,” said the Belarusian leader.
