“The period of your diplomatic work in Belarus flew by very fast. During your four-year tenure in Minsk, four meetings of our leaders took place,” the head of the Belarus President Administration remarked.
The Chinese ambassador, in turn, recalled that Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China Li Qiang paid an official visit to Belarus in August. “It was also a historic event,” he said.
“You are completing your diplomatic mission in Minsk on a high note,” Dmitry Krutoi noted.
