“The speech of the head of state at the plenary meeting of the forum is planned, which will be devoted to the potential of interaction between the two countries through the prism of the development of interregional ties,” BelTA quotes the press service of the Belarusian president.

Lukashenko will also hold talks with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky.

“The leaders of the countries will discuss in detail the current state and prospects for the development of Belarusian-Ukrainian cooperation in various fields, exchange views on regional and international agendas,” the press service said.

Lukashenko said earlier that he did not see the need to record his telephone conversations with leaders of other countries. He said this, commenting on the publication of the transcript of a telephone conversation between the leaders of the United States and Ukraine, Donald trump and Vladimir Zelensky.
