"This year's export targets are no less ambitious. Last year, 64% [of the export volume] were Russia and China. This year, we are staying in these markets: we want to grow by 6.5% in Russia … we plan to receive $24.4 billion of export earnings from Russia, which is $1.5 billion more than last year," Yaroshevich said in an interview to the Belarus 1 broadcaster. He added that Belarusian exports to China are expected to increase by 15% in 2023. "China is basically a limitless market. You can grow endlessly, the question is to competently deliver everything there and introduce it [to the consumer]," the deputy economy minister said. Yaroshevich said that in 2022 Belarus was able to achieve a positive foreign trade balance of $4.3 billion.
