It is quite possible to ensure export surplus in 2007, Prime Minister Sidorski says

It is quite possible to ensure an export surplus in Belarus' foreign trade in 2007, official information sources quoted Prime Minister Syarhey Sidorski as saying at Wednesday's news conference.

According to Mr. Sidorski, the government has proposed a number of measures that should be enough to ensure an export surplus. As he said, the task confronting the government is to ensure that this year's exports exceed imports by five percent.

The premier noted that the expected economic results of the first quarter of 2007 were making him confident that the task would be fulfilled.
