President John Dramani Mahama on Monday received a ceremonial welcome at the Belarusian Presidential Palace, where he held bilateral talks with his Belarusian counterpart, President Alexander Lukashenko, as part of his state visit to Belarus.

A statement from the Presidency said the discussions culminated in the signing of three Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) aimed at strengthening cooperation between Ghana and Belarus in key areas of mutual interest.

The agreements cover the establishment of a Joint Commission for Cooperation on trade and economic affairs, enhanced collaboration between the chambers of commerce of both countries, and cooperation in agriculture.

On the Ghanaian side, the MoUs were signed by the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Ghana’s Ambassador to Russia with concurrent accreditation to Belarus, Dr Koma Steem Jehu-Appiah, and the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku.

The Presidency noted that the agreements reflect a shared commitment by both countries to deepen bilateral relations, expand economic opportunities, and strengthen cooperation in sectors that support sustainable growth and development.
