May 16, Fineko/abc.az. Belarus and Azerbaijan are ready to significantly expand industrial cooperation.

ABC.AZ reports that President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko told reporters after talks with Azerbaijani counterpat Ilham Aliyev.

"We discussed all the issues, there were no closed topics. This is not only MTZ equipment - joint production, but also joint production of MAZ equipment, fire equipment. The production of elevator equipment (old elevators in Soviet houses need to be changed) - we have retained this production and are ready to produce this equipment here with our Azerbaijani friends," Lukashenko said.

Azerbaijan is also interested in the production of mobile railway equipment - both platforms and tanks. Belarus is ready to share its experience in this area as well.

An equally important area is cooperation in agriculture. These are supplies of elite cattle from Belarus, the construction of agro-towns and infrastructure, the creation of dairy complexes, and the development of farms. This is especially true for territories that need to be revived, the head of state noted.
