President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko held talks with President of Zimbabwe Emmerson Mnangagwa in Dubai on the sidelines of the World Summit on Combating Climate Change.
“We managed to have a thorough conversation on the eve of this event and discuss the main issues. But once again I want to congratulate you on this convincing victory (at the end of August, Emmerson Mnangagwa won the presidential election in Zimbabwe. – Approx.) and to say that we are waiting for you in Belarus,” Alexander Lukashenko said.
Speaking about bilateral relations, the President stressed that the most important thing now for Belarus and Zimbabwe is not to stop. “Yes, we have certain results of our cooperation, as you have already said, but we still have a lot of work to do in your country. We are ready to implement the plan that we outlined during my visit to Zimbabwe,” the Belarusian leader said.
The President of Belarus also noted the success of Zimbabwe in the development of agriculture. This was made possible, among other things, thanks to cooperation with Belarus and the supply of modern agricultural machinery. “And you started exporting grain, and so on,” he stressed.
“When is it better to come: in winter or in summer?” Emmerson Mnangagwa said.
“Of course, in winter!” Alexander Lukashenko replied.
“Winter is a bit difficult for me… – the President of Zimbabwe confessed. – I’ll think about what time to arrive. But my dear friend, the President of Belarus, can come to Zimbabwe from January to December!”
“Agreed!” – the Belarusian leader summed up.
