Lukashenko: Union State of Belarus and Russia may attract other countries

MINSK ( BelTA) – Belarus and Russia are building the Union State which may attract other countries, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he met with Governor of Russia's Voronezh Oblast Aleksandr Gusev in Minsk on 28 April, BelTA has learned.

The head of state noted that he sees a great interest in the development of cooperation with Belarus on the part of Russian regions.

"Thanks to you we have this cooperation. We are building a single Union State on the new principles to ensure that everyone's interests are respected, that the sovereign independent states – Belarus and Russia – keep developing. I am sure that this union will attract other republics of the former Soviet Union,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.
