Belarus prepared to join Customs Union on July 1st

Belarus is prepared to join the Customs Union on July 1st, says the Belarusian Economics Minister Nikolai Snopkov.

According to him, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko and the First Deputy Russian Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov said during their meeting that the two sides are prepared to settle the existing controversies and formalize Belarus's joining the common customs area by July 1st.

Minsk will, besides, ratify the common Customs Code of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan and will thus move over to the second stage of building the Customs Union, said Snopkov.
