OREANDA-NEWS. April 1, 2009. Belarusian auto-aggregate works will get loans to ensure uninterrupted supplies to Russia, Prime Minister of Belarus Sergei Sidorsky said after a meeting with Governor of the Nizhny Novgorod oblast of Russia Valery Shantsev in Minsk on April 1.

According to him, lending will be provided to make sure the supplies of these products to Russia are stable in the next two or three months. This is the right decision,” Sergei Sidorsky said.
