Venezuela, Belarus create working groups to assess cooperation

The Venezuelan Executive branch of government established working groups with Belarusian representatives in sectors such as energy, public works (house construction), agriculture, industry and mechanization, science and technology, education and culture for "thorough" follow-up of each of the cooperation agreements signed by the two countries, in order to make progress in the proposals presented by both governments.

Venezuela's Vice-president Elias Jaua said that Belarus has made important achievements in areas it now shares with Venezuela, most notably housing, tractors, machinery, transport trucks, scientific development in livestock and seed production, urban gasification projects, among many others.

For his part, Ricardo Menendez, the Minister of Science and Technology and Intermediate Industries, said that the two governments are not only seeking exchanges in the balance of payments, but they also intend to find mechanisms of integration and closer ties between the two economic models.
