Stadler Minsk's success attributed to favorable investment climate in Belarus

20 November (BelTA) – The success of the Swiss company Stadler Rail Group in Belarus is attributed to the fact that the country managed to create favorable investment environment, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko said at a ceremony to open the Stadler Minsk factory in Dzershinsk District on 20 November, BelTA has learnt.

“Today we have a landmark event – the opening of a new, unique for Belarus factory to produce modern electric trains,” the head of state stressed. He remarked that a mere two years ago, on 4 October 2012, a symbolic time capsule was laid in the foundation of the future plant. Today the plant is operating.

“This result of concerted efforts of builders, engineers, specialists and managers of Stadler deserves the highest reward. An optimal period of time has passed from conceiving the idea to bringing it to life,” the President emphasized. In his opinion, it is a good example for those who implement other investment projects.

Alexander Lukashenko also pointed out the importance of the fact that the electric trains that are expected to be produced at the Stadler Minsk factory have a good reputation in Belarus and reached the passenger transportation market of Moscow. Other countries of the Eurasian Economic Union and the CIS are also interested in the production of the new company.
