Minsk, January 22 (Xinhua) — Belarus and China remain reliable friends, and relations between the two countries are not affected by any political situation or external pressure. This was stated by First Deputy Foreign Minister of Belarus Sergei Lukashevich during the "Economic Environment" program on the Belarus-1 television channel, dedicated to the 34th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Belarus and China.

S. Lukashevich noted that Belarus and China are demonstrating an example of mutually beneficial, comprehensive cooperation. "It's impossible to name a single area in which Belarus and China don't cooperate to some extent. This includes politics, economics, humanitarian affairs, border control, and customs. There's no limit to the number of points of contact we have with China," the diplomat emphasized.

According to him, Belarus has been purposeful and confident in establishing an all-encompassing strategic partnership with China. "We have reached such a high level of our relations thanks to the leaders of Belarus and China. Their strategic thinking allowed us to see the future we are already living in," the First Deputy Foreign Minister of Belarus stated.

S. Lukashevich noted the high level of political, diplomatic, and economic cooperation between the two countries. "Belarusian cooperation with China is not a formality-driven collaboration. It meets Belarusian interests and vision," S. Lukashevich noted, adding that Belarus supports China in all its initiatives.
