Putin recalled that for several years the governments of the two countries have been energetically working on a package of documents to further deepen the integration processes between Russia and Belarus.

According to him, we are talking about 28 so-called union programs.

“Today I would like to note with satisfaction that all 28 programs have been coordinated,” Putin said.

He added that on September 10, the programs are expected to be approved at a meeting of the Council of Ministers of the Union State in Minsk, after which they will be submitted for approval by the Supreme State Council of the Union State, whose meeting is planned to be held by the end of this year.
