Belarus is intended to organize delivery of Belarusian tractors
and cargo vehicles to Armenia, said Valeri Ivanov, Head of Chamber
of representatives of National Assembly of Belarus, co-chairman of
Armenian-Belarusian inter-parliament committee on cooperation on
Monday during the briefing.
"We want to sell tractors "Belarus", vehicles of carrying capacity
and pit-run dump trucks in Armenia", said Ivanov.
Taking into account that pit-run works and cargo transportation is
conducted in Armenia and Belarus has special vehicles and loaders,
this issue will interest both parties.
Dates and volumes of possible deliveries will be clarified in the
nearest future on government level.
"We had single deliveries but now we are ready to provide demand of
Armenia in such vehicles by 100%", he said.
In 2009 foreign-trade turnover of Armenia with Belarus was reduced by
6% making about $29.3 million. Export volume from Armenia to Belarus
was $4.6 million (0.7% of whole export of Armenia) increased by 66%
compared with 2008.
Volume of imported goods of Belarusian production to Armenia was
$24.7 million reduced by 13.1%. The import volume from Belarus was
about $22 million (decline of 11%) or 0.7% from total import volume.
