Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Russian President, Vladimir Putin has said Western sanctions are only pushing his country and its ally Belarus toward \u201cspeeding up integration. \u201d<\/p>\n

Putin said Russian integration with Belarus will come in various sectors, which, according to him, would \u201cminimize the damage\u201d of the sanctions.<\/p>\n

\u201cRussia and Belarus have continued to grow in their cooperation in the political, trade, economic, cultural and humanitarian spheres,\u201d Putin said in a video message to the participants of an annual Russia-Belarus forum on Friday<\/p>\n

\u201cThe unprecedented pressure of sanctions from the so-called collective West is pushing us towards speeding up integration.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether it is easier to minimize the damage from the illegal sanctions, it is easier to set up the production of demanded products, develop new competencies and expand cooperation with friendly countries,\u201d Putin said.<\/p>\n

Belarus is a staunch Russian ally and helped facilitate Moscow\u2019s invasion of Ukraine in February, with some Russian forces entering the country through the Ukrainian-Belarusian border.<\/p>\n

A number of joint programs between the two nations have already been developed and more are on track for the coming years, Putin said. Areas of cooperation include technological and industrial innovation, finances and transport.<\/p>\n

Putin said the joint programs were aimed at creating \u201cequal economic conditions for our countries\u201d and would \u201cform a reliable framework for a financial market and transport base.\u201d<\/p>\n

His message comes just days before Belarus celebrates its independence from Nazi Germany on July 3, and as Russia and Belarus marked 30 years of diplomatic relations earlier this year.<\/p>\n
