"The total volume of loans from September this year to the end of 2022 will amount to about $ 630 million," Putin said.

Earlier, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said at the Moscow Financial Forum that the Russian Ministry of Finance does not rule out that it could provide support to Belarus if necessary.

According to him, the department sees that “the neighbor is in a difficult financial situation” and interacts with Belarusian colleagues.

Siluanov stressed that now the main task is to stimulate the integration process.
