Cooperation, new investment projects and service centers - Belarus actively enters the East Siberian market

This time the main direction is East. The region is ready to become the engine of the eastern vector. And they also loudly declare that today is the time of Siberia. And it is important not to miss it.
After all, if the market is vacated by some producers, others will quickly enter it. We have advantages. Many Belarusian goods are known there.
There should be more such projects, the Belarusian diplomat said at a meeting with the governor of the region. The trade turnover of 200 million dollars should push manufacturers to a new level. Moreover, there are good examples.
There are also plans to enter the program of urban transport renovation. Krasnoyarsk is considering proposals for electric buses, streetcars and trolleybuses on autonomous running. The first one has already been assembled here from Belkommunmash. They are studying it for now.
Belarusian equipment is well represented in Krasnoyarsk. It accounts for half of the agricultural fleet and 35 percent of the forage harvesters. Municipal machinery is also coming actively.
