MINSK, October 2. /TASS/. Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin will continue his two-day working visit to Belarus on Friday, where he will take part in events within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union, including a meeting of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council.

The day before, the Russian prime minister took part in the meeting of the Council of Ministers of the Union State of Russia and Belarus. He also visited the Innoprom exhibition.

The central event of his second day in Belarus will be a meeting of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council, first with attendance restricted only to heads of governments of the member countries, and then with the participation of other delegates from member countries and observer states.

He may also meet with top Belarusian officials, as it happened last year.

The current meeting of the council may be considered extraordinary: EAEU rules stipulate that the prime ministers meet twice a year. However, the event in Minsk will be the third this year.

The EAEU premiers are expected to discuss prospects of boosting integration in various areas, including industry, energy and agriculture. Their previous meeting, held in Kyrgyzstan’s Cholpon-Ata in August, also focused on the same issues.
