MINSK, 29 January (BelTA) - BRICS is a firm foothold for Belarus in the implementation of its trade and economic interests, Belarusian Minister of Foreign Affairs Maksim Ryzhenkov said in an interview with Izvestia, BelTA has learned.
“This is a secure foothold in the implementation of trade and economic interests. For example, we have recently held talks with the bank established in BRICS to discuss the implementation of investment projects. We have high hopes for the implementation of projects in Belarus or with the participation of Belarus abroad with the help of this bank,” Maksim Ryzhenkov said.
In his words, the partner status helps Belarus act in all dimensions of BRICS activities. “First of all, it is a good platform for us to develop positions together with key political partners on the main items on the international agenda. It is also a good opportunity to have contact with our partners at the highest level to develop bilateral relations,” the minister stressed.
“We are in this organization, and it means that we all share the ideas of BRICS multipolarity, share the ideas of taking into account interests and building peace based on mutual trust and respect of all parties. We speak together on such international issues, where the voice of Belarus may not have been heard, but it becomes so with the scale of such an organization. This also helps us strive for the level of such countries as China, India, Brazil, and Russia,” the minister added.
