December 16, Pozirk.<\/em><\/strong> Belarusian Defense Minister Viktar Chrenin met with Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa in Harare on September 16, informing him about military cooperation agreements reached during meetings the previous day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI would like to share good news that sanctions on Belarusian potash were lifted literally the day before,\u201d Chrenin was quoted as saying by the defense ministry in Minsk. \u201cThis will enable us to resume and expand cooperation in this area.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mnangagwa said Zimbabwe is hoping to receive supplies of agricultural equipment from Belarus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day before the meeting with the president, Chrenin met in Harare with his Zimbabwean counterpart, Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri, to discuss closer military ties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this week, the United States lifted sanctions on Belarusian potash fertilizers in exchange for the release of 123 prisoners, most of whom were political opponents of the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
