MINSK, September 29. /TASS/. The projected estimated potential for industrial IT solutions exports from Russia to Belarus is 4.5 billion rubles ($54 mln), Dmitry Grigorenko, Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of Staff of the Russian Government, told reporters.

"According to forecasts, the estimated potential for industrial IT solutions exports to Belarus alone is 4.5 billion rubles," he said.
