MOSCOW, 11 April (BelTA) – Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin for providing Russian sea port capacities for Belarusian cargoes as he met with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in Moscow on 11 April, BelTA has learned.
"I appreciate your support on the ports. We are working. We are looking into other ports. The Russian ports are helping us to ship products. In a word, there is no such thing as goods lying on the shore and us being unable to ship them," the Belarusian head of state said. "We work in St. Petersburg, Murmansk, and the Far East."
“In the north, too,” Vladimir Putin noted.
Aleksandr Lukashenko confirmed that the prospects for the Northern Sea Route are good: "We have already shipped goods along the Northern Sea Route. Several thousand tonnes have already been delivered. It’s very convenient for our manufacturers. Therefore, your support has been very important for us."
