"But I must say honestly: the Belarusian leadership has taken an honest course of economic integration with Russia. This choice, of course, deserves support and respect," he said.
Putin said that, according to the agreements, reached in 2011, Russia would supply Belarus with 20-21 million tons of crude oil duty free. In turn, purchase taxes on the Belarusian oil products’ export will be transferred to the Russian budget, BelTA informs.
Vladimir Putin noted that Russia had «agreed to factor out the oil, produced in Belarus.»
