BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 7. The turnover of Azerbaijan and Belarus for the main commodity items has increased since the beginning of 2022, Ambassador of Belarus to Azerbaijan Andrei Ravkov said in an interview with "Novoe Vremya" (New times) Azerbaijani newspaper, Trend reports.

According to him, there has been a significant increase in fruit and vegetable imports from Azerbaijan to Belarus. For instance, Belarus tripled the import of tomatoes.

"In turn, we supply Azerbaijan with engineering products, electrical goods, medicine, dairy and meat products, as well as other food products. Also, the turnover increase between our countries last year totaled almost $1 billion," he said.

Ravkov noted that Azerbaijan has established and operates its own entities for the commodity distribution of Belarusian manufacturers, and 45 dealers represent more than 50 enterprises of Belarus.

"Besides the direct trade of goods, cooperation ties are also developing. The cooperation of the Belarussian mechanical engineers with Azerbaijan's Ganja automobile factory has become a landmark project for the two states. This project represents a perfect example of efficient interaction in the field of industrial cooperation. For 15 years, more than 12,000 "Belarus" tractors and about 4,000 other techniques were assembled in Ganja," said Ravkov.

He added that the experience illustrates that Azerbaijan is a reliable and the most significant partner of Belarus.
