Belarus is interested in expanding food exports and setting up plants for joint production of agricultural machinery and vehicles, his press office quotes the message.

“Algeria and Belarus are countries with rich cultural traditions, strong economies, progressive science and technology and similar values which form a solid basis for strengthening bilateral ties,” the message reads.
