Currently, 12 joint projects with a total value of US$156 million have been launched. Also, 21 projects worth a total of US$ 1 billion are being developed.
The next important task is to increase the two-way trade to US$ 10 billion. We expect that the commissioning of the International Industrial Cooperation Center on the border of our countries will make a significant contribution to this process," said the source, quoting the words of the Deputy PM.
