RBC, 30.01.2009, Moscow 18:34:58.The Russia-Belarus Union State's leadership believes that the union's anti-crisis plan will prevent the Russian and Belarusian economies from slipping below the 2008 level, Belarusian Prime Minister Sergei Sidorsky said during a meeting of the alliance's council of ministers in Moscow today. He stressed that the plan enabled the union's GDP not only to remain at the same level, but also possibly even grow a bit. The draft plan for minimizing the effects of the global financial turmoil is the main item on the council of ministers' meeting agenda, Sidorsky stated, adding that the parties had agreed on almost the entire document. "We are close to signing the document," the Belarusian PM concluded.
