The deputy minister said that over the last 20 years the cooperation between the ministries of agriculture of the two states has been almost zero. Meanwhile, agriculture is one of the main economic sectors both in Belarus and Georgia. “I want Georgia to develop a different approach to the cooperation with Belarus. We should start thinking about the projects that we can implement,” Gocha Tsopurashvili said. He believes that pig breeding, fish farming, and potato production are promising cooperation areas.
“Georgia is a county open for business. There are many areas that we can discuss with Belarus and cooperate in,” Gocha Tsopurashvili noted.
