Lukashenko: Belarus has all it takes to help Myanmar advance technologically

NAYPYIDAW, 28 November (BelTA) - Belarus has everything necessary to help Myanmar move up a technological level, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said during one-on-one talks with Acting President of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar, Chairman of the State Security and Peace Commission Min Aung Hlaing on 28 November, BelTA has learned.

Aleksandr Lukashenko noted that his first official visit to Myanmar is receiving significant attention in the country. The head of state assured that Belarus will certainly live up to this trust.

“Belarus has all it takes to help Myanmar advance technologically. Your government, your ministers have learned some things about Belarus. You know what we are capable of. We are a developed machine-building country; we have advanced industry, agriculture, high technology, education, and healthcare,” the president said.

According to the Belarusian leader, although a significant geographical distance separates the countries, it is not an obstacle to developing relations. “They say that in the modern world, distance means nothing for establishing good relations,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.
