Belarus’ export of transportation services on the rise

Belarus has increased the export of transport services to Brazil, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Egypt, China and Indonesia in 2023, Belarusian Minister of Transport and Communications Aleksei Lyakhnovich said during a meeting to the review the industry's performance in 2023 on 11 February, BelTA has learned. 

As it was noted at the meeting, external factors continued to have a negative impact on the work of the Belarusian transport industry in 2023.

Belarus received more than 32,000 additional permits in Azerbaijan, Armenia Iran, Georgia, Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia, Russia, Turkey and Uzbekistan to ensure the export of goods by road, which was 1.3 times more than the original quota. At present, Belarus carries out international road transport through the territory of 14 foreign countries.
