Opening new horizons

In 2024, the export geography of the Belarusian Ministry of Industry's enterprises totaled 67 countries, including the resumption of supplies to 15 markets, to which there were no exports in 2023. In the first quarter of 2025, the organizations of the Belarusian Ministry of Industry increased the volume of exports to non-CIS countries by one and a half times. Supplies to African countries increased 1.8 times, to Asia - 1.7 times. Since ensuring stable growth of the Belarusian industrial complex is one of the priority tasks of our republic, the industry continues to work on creating conditions for expanding export opportunities. Belarusian enterprises are actively cooperating with the most promising regions of Asia and Africa as part of their efforts to diversify markets. They create favorable conditions and prerequisites for mutually beneficial cooperation in the long term. In addition, a new and improved legal and contractual base of cooperation is being formed, which allows bringing these relations to a qualitatively new level. How are Belarus' relations with a number of Asian and African countries developing under these conditions? This is the subject of this study.
