KAZAN, 23 October (BelTA) – It is necessary to take stock of Belarus-Venezuela relations and decide what else needs to be done, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he met with Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on the sidelines of the BRICS summit in Kazan, Russia on 23 October, BelTA has learned.
The Belarusian head of state recalled that the prime minister had recently visited Venezuela on his instructions “to take the first step towards deepening relations”. “This includes revising the bilateral relations, discarding what no longer works, keeping what is still relevant, and coming up with something new. We are now working on a new cooperation roadmap, a plan for the future. I think we should follow this path. We need to have a clear vision of what we should do together in these conditions.”
Nicolás Maduro said that he is on the same page with the Belarusian president: “We will keep working together, we will go along the path that Hugo Chávez followed. This is the path of Simón Bolívar [Latin American statesman, political and military leader, national hero of Venezuela]. And all this leads to new successes.”
