The 4th Eurasian Economic Forum took place in the Belarusian capital on 26 June. The plenary session “Strategy of Eurasian Economic Integration: Results and Prospects” was attended by President Aleksandr Lukashenko and distinguished guests from partner countries.
During his speech, the Belarusian president outlined the contours of the updated version of the economic union, focusing on the need to create a branded Eurasian product.
“Work on joint projects has begun, decisions have been made, and considerable funds have been allocated for these purposes from the EAEU budget. We must not compete with each other in traditional industries, but together take the lead in new industries, the ones that we have not probably considered yet. There is no escaping it. By combining the potentials of our economies, we are able to create a unique Eurasian product - from airplanes and trains to digital solutions and artificial intelligence. We have already learned to do some things in these areas,” said Aleksandr Lukashenko.
