Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.uz) -- Belarusian Ambassador to Uzbekistan Leonid Marinich met with top managers of OOO Krantas and AO Uzagroleasing, BelTA reported quoting data of the Belarusian diplomatic mission.
During the meeting, the parties discussed ways to step up supplies of Belarusian mechanical engineering products to Uzbekistan, to develop cooperation with the Uzbek manufacturer on joint assembly of MTZ tractors and MAZ trucks. The parties noted the need to expand the model range of MTZ vehicles for the joint production. Assembling excavators and loaders based on Belarusian tractors is a promising area, the embassy said.
“The Uzbek side is also interested in supplying powerful tractors for the country's rapidly-growing agricultural industry. Partners from Uzbekistan confirmed their readiness to purchase Belarusian-made engines and tires for the vehicles produced at the plant,” the diplomatic mission said.
