ISLAMABAD, 15 October (BelTA) – Belarus is ready to produce agricultural machinery in Pakistan, Belarusian Prime Minister Roman Golovchenko said as he met with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, BelTA has learned.
“Belarus is closely following developments in Pakistan and its progress to implement ambitious, large-scale projects. We know how much attention you personally pay to facilitating the country's progress, how much effort you put into promoting agriculture, manufacturing, public transport, diversification of the economy and improvement of the living environment,” Roman Golovchenko said.
He outlined some points on the cooperation agenda that require additional attention from governments. “Of course, one of Belarus’ economic priorities is industry, in particular mechanical engineering. We are seriously studying the possibility of running joint projects in the manufacturing industry. The most obvious areas of cooperation include direct supplies of Belarusian agricultural machinery and its production in Pakistan,” the prime minister noted.
Roman Golovchenko is on a working visit to Pakistan on 15-16 October. In Pakistan Roman Golovchenko is scheduled to attend a meeting of the Heads of Government Council of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization member states.

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization is a permanent intergovernmental international organization, the establishment of which was announced on June 15, 2001 in Shanghai (PRC). Initially, it was the "Shanghai Five" - Kazakhstan, China, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan. The foundation for the unification of countries with different political systems, traditions and values within the SCO was the sphere of security and trade and economic relations. The common goal was to ensure a favorable international environment based on the principles of the "Shanghai spirit", the main content of which is mutual trust and benefit, equality, mutual consultations, respect for the diversity of cultures and civilizations, and the desire for joint development. The founding document of the organization is the SCO Charter, signed in June 2002.
