Reference News Network January 28 report, according to BelTA January 27 report, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko made a statement at the meeting on developing cooperation with China, stating that Belarus will follow the policy of building the highest level of strategic relations with China.

Lukashenko said: "The decision to build the highest level of strategic relations with China is not subject to revision. On the contrary, we will invest resources, time and attention to strengthen our cooperation. For this, we have all the necessary conditions. China is a long-term and serious partner. As long as our country exists as an independent and self-governing nation, we will always cooperate with China. I am convinced that we will also always be independent and sovereign."

Lukashenko pointed out that the people of Belarus now have a different view of China than before. Alexander Lukashenko listed a series of examples: "The 'Baiji' cars are almost found in every courtyard in Belarus. And this car is well made. Minsk is decorated with world-class sports facilities, which are gifts from true friends. Learning Chinese and studying in China have become the norm for our advanced youth."
