The Belarusian Finance Ministry and the Industry Ministry have been authorized to conduct talks with the Russian side. They are authorized to sign the agreement. Once the document is signed, these government agencies will have to ensure its implementation.
BPS Sberbank will be in charge of executing the agreement and will be entitled to collecting fees of at most 0.02% of the sum that Belarus’ central state budget has to compensate for.
