The results of the stay of the CIS ambassadors in the Belarusian pavilion were summed up by Dmitry Krutoy. “Judging by the number of visitors at the Brest Region Days that took place a little earlier and now at the Vitebsk Region Days, we understand that the effect is colossal from this regional concept of our pavilion at VDNKh. We see that there is interest in everything: food, industrial products, tourism potential , culture, and near each stand they tell me that hundreds and hundreds of visitors discover Belarus every day - now through the Vitebsk region,” he noted.

It is planned that before the Independence Day of Belarus, all regions of our country will present their expositions at VDNKh. “Knowing that the President of Russia has decided to extend the main exposition of the exhibition-forum “Russia” (it is currently being held at VDNKh - BELTA) for another six months, we are already thinking about what we will show after July 3 - Independence Day and 80 anniversary of the liberation of Belarus. It is already necessary to think through new concepts,” the Ambassador of Belarus emphasized.

“Our enterprises from regions that have yet to be presented at VDNKh see stories in the media and understand that this is a great opportunity to promote their potential on the Russian market. The level of contacts here is simply enormous, so it’s simply impossible not to take advantage of such opportunities,” - added Dmitry Krutoy.
