Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin will hold talks with new Belarusian Prime Minister Roman Golovchenko in Moscow on July 14.

Axar.az reports citing Russian media.

"The heads of government are expected to discuss a wide range of topical issues related to Russian-Belarusian relations and integration within the Union State. Special attention will be paid to trade and economic cooperation and the implementation of major joint projects," the report said.

This is the first face-to-face meeting between them since Golovchenko was appointed as new Belarusian Prime Minister. They had two phone calls since then, on June 5 and June 26. During the first conversation, Mishustin congratulated his Belarusian counterpart on his appointment and wished him success in his work. He also reaffirmed readiness for joint work within the Union State and highlighted the importance of scaling up bilateral cooperation for the further development of the Eurasian Economic Union and the CIS.
