📋 Tender Overview
This was announced today September 9 2022 by the Minister of Economy Alexander Chervyakov during a working meeting with the Deputy Governorof St. Petersburg Valery Moskalenko.According to Alexander Chervyakov Russia has always been the main strategic partner for Belarus. However in the face of unfriendly actions by individual countries the implementation of previously defined strategic directions for the development of economic integration is accelerating.In this regard the intensification of cooperation with Russian regions in a wide range of areas is of great importance. The Ministry of Economy is the coordinator of interaction with the Vladimir Region and Yakutia. Other government agencies are also assigned 2-3 regions. This practice has proven to be effective. The trade turnover is growing the ties are getting stronger. By delving into the problems of interaction with a particular region in detail it is often possible to identify one or another problem that has not been resolved in general in the relationship between the two countries. There is faster feedback here which allows you to respond quickly the Minister of Economy stressed.The meeting participants discussed in detail the promising areas of trade and economic cooperation and other areas of cooperation. Representatives of the Russian side shared their successful experience in implementing initiatives under special investment agreements and infrastructure projects including through public-private partnerships. A significant part of the conversation was devoted to supporting the manufacturing business including through its participation in industrial cooperation and import substitution.The task was set to involve private enterprises in this work. To this end we have organized and regularly hold contact-cooperation exchanges with enterprises in terms of import substitution.The second point is the electronic platform of the Belarusian Universal Commodity Exchange. There our large and medium-sized enterprises place orders for components and other products necessary for production. At the same time private business is connected there which can very quickly bring or manufacture the required goods. Unlike similar digital solutions of other exchanges it is much cheaper and more reliable to enter the BUCE platform in terms of costs in the sense that any company entering the exchange is checked. That is we guarantee that there will be no dummies. Accordingly St. Petersburg companies can also work productively there. Within the framework of this model a bridge of interaction between enterprises and businesses of our countries can be established said Alexander
