October 31, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong>  Belarusian goods exports amounted to $30.25 billion and imports, to $33.6 billion with the deficit widening to $3.4 billion in September after $2.4 billion reported in August, the National Statistics Committee (Bie\u0142stat) said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarus\u2019 foreign trade in goods rose by 5.4 percent year on year to $63.9 billion in the first nine months of 2024. Bie\u0142stat has not disclosed the breakdown by country or goods category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, the deficit totaled $3.88 billion and was offset by services trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarus needs to ensure a balanced foreign trade along with growing and diversified exports, Belarusian Prime Minister Raman Ha\u0142o\u016d\u010danka said in late June. The official was set to eliminate the deficit by the last quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
