MOSCOW, 17 September (BelTA - TV BRICS) - Minsk Days will be held in Moscow from 18 to 21 September. The Republic of Belarus remains one of the key partners of the Russian capital: in 2024 and 2025, the country ranks fourth in terms of foreign trade turnover among foreign partners. The volume of trade exceeded US$22 billion, which is 7 per cent more than in 2023.

The grand opening will take place at the Moscow International Performing Arts Centre. The concert programme will feature performances by the National Presidential Orchestra of Belarus, the "Khoroshki" dance ensemble, the "Kupalynka" folk group, the "Pesnyary" music ensemble, and other artists.

An important part of the Days of Minsk will be a meeting between Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin and Minsk City Executive Committee Chairman Vladimir Kukharev. They will discuss new opportunities for cooperation between the capitals of the two countries.

There will also be round tables on the development of tourism, youth policy and social protection of the population. Sports events are also planned – teams of boys and girls from the capitals of the two countries will play table tennis.

The BRICS and BRICS+ countries are keen to develop educational projects. In Laos, for example, work is currently underway to open the first Russian school, whose graduates will be able to obtain a double certificate.

Now, an agreement on international cooperation will be signed between schools in Minsk and Moscow.

An exhibition and fair will be held on Tverskaya Square. Guests will be treated to products from Minsk manufacturers, an entertainment programme and a fair selling tourist tours to Belarus.

Last year, Sergey Sobyanin and Vladimir Kukharev agreed to hold regular Days of Minsk in Moscow and Days of Moscow in Minsk. These events strengthen ties between the capitals.
