Donetsk Foreign Minister: Syria will become one of our largest partners in maritime trade
On July 7th, Donetsk People’s Republic Foreign Minister Natalia Nikonorova announced that Syria will become one of Donetsk’s largest partners in maritime trade.
She said that trade between the two countries could include metal, industry, machine building and agricultural products.
“Maritime trade is recovering and Syria may become one of our main trading partners,” TASS news agency quoted Nikonorova as saying.
