NOVO-OGARYOVO, November 10. /TASS/. The volume of trade between Russia and Belarus is remarkably large, and broadly speaking, the economic partnership between Moscow and Minsk is developing at a good pace, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at a meeting with his Belarusian counterpart, Alexander Lukashenko.

"The governments are operating on a day-to-day basis: colleagues from the government report that progress is being made across all areas, and at a good pace," Putin said.

"We have a remarkable volume of trade turnover, there’s no other way to put it," he added.
