MINSK, May 14 (Xinhua) — Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko and Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa signed a roadmap for strategic cooperation and partnership for 2026-2030 following talks in Minsk on Wednesday, the press service of the Belarusian head of state reported.
A. Lukashenko stated that the signed package of bilateral documents, based on the roadmap, takes into account all key joint projects in various areas. According to the Belarusian leader, the parties held very intensive and productive negotiations.
“We discussed a wide range of issues, reviewed how the agreements already reached are being implemented, including during the visit to Zimbabwe two years ago. We identified new joint projects. At the same time, we paid special attention to the development of promising areas, including interregional interaction and industrial cooperation,” A. Lukashenko said and added that thanks to the support of the Zimbabwean leader, the two countries will more actively increase trade turnover, create joint promising production, and open new markets both in Africa and Eurasia.
A. Lukashenko noted that Belarus is ready to assist Zimbabwe in creating a comprehensive healthcare system, supplying medical products and special equipment from Belarus. The Belarusian leader drew attention to the fact that his country can also become a reliable partner of Zimbabwe in the implementation of modern waste processing technologies, digitalization, peaceful use of nuclear energy, and cooperation in space exploration.
In turn, E. Mnangagwa emphasized that the two countries have achieved success in bilateral cooperation. “The progress and growth that we are seeing in bilateral relations brings us satisfaction. We have indeed achieved success. However, there is a need to use these successes to move forward,” the President of Zimbabwe said.
He stressed that Belarus had made a huge contribution to Zimbabwe’s agricultural mechanization program and food security. “We are ready to continue to mechanize and modernize our dairy industry with the support of our Belarusian partners. Zimbabwe is keen to make progress in cooperation on machinery production, as we will benefit greatly from this. At the same time, I believe the Belarusian economy can also benefit from this, because it will be present in Africa,” the Zimbabwean leader added. –0–
