Russia will provide its neighbour Belarus with around $630-640 million in loans by the end of 2022, President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday after meeting his Belarus counterpart Alexander Lukashenko in the Kremlin.
Lukashenko, speaking at a media briefing after the talks, said the question of agreeing on a common currency with Russia was not on the agenda.
