I held fruitful discussions with President Aleksandr Lukashenko in Minsk, reaffirming the strong ties between Zimbabwe and Belarus.

We agreed to deepen cooperation in key sectors including industry, energy, health, and water purification, with Zimbabwe set to become a regional manufacturing hub for Belarusian products.

We also jointly called for the lifting of illegal sanctions, which hinder our nations’ development efforts.

My sincere thanks to President Lukashenko and the people of Belarus for their continued friendship.
