Belarus - Asia: the Vector of Partnership

Countries of Asia are traditionally an important area of Belarus's multi-vector foreign policy course and promotion of Belarusian interests in the "far arc" regions. The states of the continent now claim to be compared with the locomotive of global economic development, as evidenced by the calculations of the International Monetary Fund. They show that the countries of Asia will show the fastest growth in 2018. The continent, whose population exceeds 62 percent of all people living on the planet, generates more than 46 percent of the gross world product. In the future, Asia's share of the population and its share of output will only increase due to higher rates of population and economic growth. Recall that of the 12 countries with a population of more than 100 million people, seven already account for the Asian continent: China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Japan and the Philippines. All of these facts objectively actualize Belarus's interest in Asia as a capacious, promising and rapidly expanding market for Belarusian goods and services, as well as a promising donor of investments in the Belarusian economy. How does the Belarusian side master the Asian market? This study is about that.

Klappentext

Countries of Asia are traditionally an important area of Belarus's multi-vector foreign policy course and promotion of Belarusian interests in the "far arc" regions. The states of the continent now claim to be compared with the locomotive of global economic development, as evidenced by the calculations of the International Monetary Fund. They show that the countries of Asia will show the fastest growth in 2018. The continent, whose population exceeds 62 percent of all people living on the planet, generates more than 46 percent of the gross world product. In the future, Asia's share of the population and its share of output will only increase due to higher rates of population and economic growth. Recall that of the 12 countries with a population of more than 100 million people, seven already account for the Asian continent: China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Japan and the Philippines. All of these facts objectively actualize Belarus's interest in Asia as a capacious, promising and rapidly expanding market for Belarusian goods and services, as well as a promising donor of investments in the Belarusian economy.
