“For over two decades since the signing of the Treaty on Establishing the Union State of Russia and Belarus, our countries have managed to develop mutually beneficial integration mechanisms, significantly strengthen bilateral cooperation in trade, the economy, scientific, technical, cultural and other fields. We have been implementing mutually beneficial joint projects, as well as coordinating our foreign and defence policies,” Russia’s President notes in his message.
Vladimir Putin expressed confidence that the accumulated experience of joint work will help the two countries find optimal approaches to all, even the most complicated issues that are hindring the development of the Union State.
