“We probably did not know how multifaceted and versatile it could be if we seriously tap into it. Today our partners are able and willing to develop mutually beneficial contacts, even in areas that we once dismissed as not very important,” Maksim Ryzhenkov said.
About 60 people are taking part in the annual seminar. The program of the seminar includes meetings with heads of ministries and government agencies, visits to enterprises and historical and cultural landmarks. The diplomats will attend lectures at the Academy of Public Administration under the aegis of the President of Belarus, take part in round tables and hold one-on-one meetings with top management of exporting enterprises.
