Subianto also thanked Belarus for ratifying the Free Trade Agreement between Indonesia and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), which was signed in December 2025.
Both leaders emphasised the importance of working together to ensure food security. Lukashenko emphasised that Belarus is ready not only to supply fertilisers and foodstuffs – including milk and meat – as well as agricultural and heavy-duty machinery, but also to assist Indonesia in training specialists to operate this machinery and in localising production using Belarusian technologies.
The President of Belarus said he was pleased with the outcome of his visit to Indonesia: thanks to the coordinated efforts of ministers, government departments, delegation members and business representatives, contracts worth tens of millions of US dollars were signed.
