Alyaksandr Lukashenka is expected to arrive in the Turkmen capital, Ashgabat, on a state visit on the evening of June 17, the Central Asian country’s TDH news agency said.
When reached by BelaPAN on Wednesday, the Belarusian leader’s press office declined to comment on the report.
The visit is expected to yield a package of agreements “aimed at laying the firm foundations for intensifying cooperation built with due regard for long-term prospects and the enormous bilateral potential,” the news agency said.
TDH said that the two countries had stepped up their relations since the first meeting of a bilateral commission on economic cooperation in Minsk in January 2008.
Turkmenistan supplies Belarus with energy resources, agricultural produce and textiles, and imports Belarusian-made equipment, vehicles, foodstuffs and chemical products, according to TDH.
There were eight companies involving Belarusian capital in Turkmenistan on May 1, 2009, the news agency said.
