According to Peskov, such plans should not impede the further development of integration processes, as the existing regimes between Russia and Belarus “of course, are taken into account during such negotiations and are somehow agreed between partners”.

Earlier, the press secretary of the Belarusian Foreign Ministry, Anatoly Glaz, said that Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko decided to sign agreements with the EU regarding simplified visa issuance and readmission.
