Belarus is keen to bolster development cooperation with Vietnam, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko stated when hosting a reception for Vietnamese Ambassador Nguyen Van Ngu on March 29 to discuss the bilateral relations and development prospects of new cooperation fields.
Belarus actively promotes development and cooperation with Vietnam, not only because Belarusians love Vietnamese people, but also because the two countries have common economic interests, he stated.
He affirmed that Belarus is ready to provide its technology to Vietnam, support the formation of new businesses and establish joint ventures to produce technical products.
In addition, he said Belarus is ready to expand the supply of food and fertilizers to Vietnam which are of paramount importance in the current context.
