“Thank you for listening to my request and opening up railway traffic between the two countries, increasing the traffic capacity and the ability to move back and forth for our citizens, Russia and Belarus, through the air gates.
I think the moment is not far off when we will open car traffic, we have no problems, we are not closed here.
You sent specialists, they made sure that you and I are moving in the same way in terms of the incidence (coronavirus), but fortunately, now the incidence has begun to decline sharply.
God forbid, by autumn or maybe by summer we will reach zero, closer there, ”Lukashenka said.
In turn, during the talks, Russian leader Vladimir Putin noted the importance of cooperation between Belarus and Russia at the regional level.
Earlier it became known that Russia is resuming railway communication with Belarus and increasing the number of flights to Minsk.
