About bilateral
economic ties and cooperation, Deputy General
Director for Foreign Economic Activity at Minsk Department of the Belarusian
Chamber of Commerce and Industry Dubova Tatyana Yaroslavovna said
“We have come to Mongolia to augment trade volume in Mongolia and to broaden
cooperation. Representative offices of the Belarusian biggest machinery and
equipment companies have been operating in Mongolia. This time, we signed an agreement
on supplying elevator for flour mill. Also the two Chambers of Commerce and
Industry renewed cooperation agreement.
15 representatives of 11 Belarussian companies in the fields of mining, food, agriculture and energy arrived Mongolia. At the meeting, the businessmen mostly touched upon transportation issues. “For example, when supplying equipment from Belarusia to a meat processing plant in Uvs aimag, the transportation must pass through Ulaanbaatar instead of directly transporting through border station of neighboring Russia. The Belarusian side asked relevant public organizations to help solving this problem, MNCCI General Secretary E.Oyuntegsh said.
Present at the
meeting were Ambassador of Belarus to Mongolia S.Chepurnoy and trade
representatives of the Embassy of Russia in Mongolia. Business delegation from
Belarus will visit Mongolia for two days.
