H.H. Sheikh Khaled holds talks with President of Belarus in Minsk
His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, and Belarus' President Alexander Lukashenko have discussed ways to further strengthen cooperation in key sectors, including economy, investment and development. Sheikh Khaled and Lukashenko witnessed the exchange of the Trade in Services and Investment Agreement (TISIA), which marks a new era of private-sector cooperation between the two countries. The agreement expands market access for UAE businesses in sectors such as financial and business services, consulting, education and healthcare, while also creating new opportunities for foreign direct investment and joint ventures. It reflects both nations' shared vision for economic prosperity through mutually beneficial trade and investment. The meeting was held on the sidelines of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council meeting in Minsk at the Palace of Independence. Belarus is a key trading partner for the UAE. In 2024, bilateral non-oil trade surged to approximately $3.9 billion, a fivefold increase on 2023 and a 47-fold rise compared to 2021, when trade volumes stood at just $82.6 million. During the meeting, the two sides also exchanged views on key regional and international developments, highlighting the importance of advancing efforts to promote peace and stability and supporting peaceful conflict resolution as a foundation for sustainable development and prosperity in the region and beyond. Sheikh Khaled also expressed appreciation for the warm welcome and generous hospitality accorded to him and his delegation at the Eurasian Economic forum.
