On the participation of the Minister of Foreign Affairs Vladimir Makei in the Belarusian-Swiss Business Forum
09.04.2019Speaking at the Belarusian-Swiss business forum on 8 April 2019 in Genthod (Switzerland, Geneva canton) Belarusian Foreign Minister Vladimir Makei urged Swiss and French business to invest in Belarus.
It was noted that Switzerland is an important trade and economic partner for Belarus in Europe. The Swiss company Stadler-Minsk, producing rolling stock in Belarus, is one of the best examples of successful western investments in Belarusian economy. Its success serves as a confirmation of stability and reliability of economic conditions created by Belarus for foreign companies.
The Minister stressed that in terms of working with investors Belarus has no geographical or political preferences. Our country is interested in creation of a single Eurasian economic space with free movement of goods, services, people and capital from Lisbon to Vladivostok, or even more. Vladimir Makei also called on the representatives of European companies to carry forward the implementation of the “integration of integrations” initiative proposed by the President of Belarus by supporting direct and pragmatic contacts between supranational bodies of the Eurasian Economic Union and the European Union.
