Vitebsk Oblast to export young conifers to Russia's Tver Oblast

Vitebsk Oblast plans to export young coniferous trees to Russia's Tver Oblast. Chairman of the Vitebsk Oblast Council of Deputies Vladimir Terentyev told media about the plans of interregional cooperation and mutual interests on 14 April to summarize the results of the oblast administration's representatives' visit to Russia's Tver Oblast, BelTA has learned.

"Tver Oblast is interested in our forest products, in particular in young spruce trees. I plan to meet with the heads of our forestry enterprises in the nearest future to work out joint solutions and define the volumes of export. Tver Oblast is large and needs a lot. The oblast is also interested in Belarusian flax and rapeseed," Vladimir Terentyev noted.

According to him, during the visit to Tver Oblast the parties agreed that the documents on supplies of bakery products, confectionery, dairy products, and breakfast cereals will be signed directly between heads of enterprises.

"The visit was interesting and fruitful. We spent much time at the Dmitrova Gora agricultural holding company. Dmitrova Gora is an enterprise that comprises all the phases of farming, processing and marketing. The example of this company could be useful for the upcoming integration structures in our region," Vladimir Terentyev underlined.

Speaking about prospects of creating joint ventures, Vladimir Terentyev pointed out that Russian partners are interested in such cooperation. "We will work towards this objective because we clearly understand that we have to gain support of local manufacturers in order to get a foothold in the Russian market. We have found solid partners in Tver Oblast and now we intend to advance various avenues of cooperation," Vladimir Terentyev said.

The Belarusian delegation headed by Vladimir Terentyev included members of the Vitebsk Oblast Council of Deputies and heads of enterprises. The Vitebsk Oblast Council of Deputies and the Tver Oblast Legislative Assembly signed a protocol in Tver on joint measures to implement the agreement on cooperation between the two regions.
