       Belarus invites India to develop a roadmap for bilateral relations, Speaker of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly of Belarus Mikhail Myasnikovich said as he met with Indian Ambassador to Belarus Manoj Kumar Bharti. The Speaker noted that Belarus is interested in expanding trade, economic and other ties with India and proposed to develop a roadmap which will serve as a long-term instrument in bilateral relations. "The comprehensive plan, which was adopted earlier, actually ends in 2015.
