Belarus’ Lukashenko visits  Zimbabwe to strengthen Economic Ties

Belarusia’s President Alexander Lukashenko arrived in Zimbabwe to pomp and fanfare on Monday, in a visit that seeks to cement economic and political ties between the two countries that are both close allies of Russia.

Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa and hundreds of singing and cheering  supporters welcomed Lukashenko at the main Robert Gabriel Mugabe airport in the capital, Harare. The leaders didn’t speak to the press.

The visit, according to Zimbabwe’s foreign affairs ministry, is aimed at boosting “strong cooperation in political, economic, mining, agriculture and disaster risk management” between the two countries.

Belarus has provided Zimbabwe with farm equipment such as tractors, combine harvesters and trucks under a deal worth tens of millions of dollars following Mnangagwa’s visit to the Belarusian capital Minsk in 2019.

Zimbabwe, a close ally of Moscow’s for decades, has refused to condemn Russian President Vladmir Putin for the Ukraine invasion, instead pledging neutrality and calling for dialogue in line with the position taken by many African countries. Belarus supports the Russian invasion.

Mnangagwa and Lukashenko have repeatedly been accused by internal rivals and the West of using arrests and other forms of harassment to stifle dissent and remain in power in their countries — allegations they deny.

Zimbabwe’s Foreign Ministry said the talks aimed at strengthening “the existing excellent relations” between the two countries, in areas including politics, mining and agriculture.

“The visit is historic, as it is the first such undertaking to a sub-Saharan African nation, by President Lukashenko,” the ministry said in a statement.
