SOLIGORSK, 17 July (BelTA) – Relations with Uralkali, the Russian shareholder in Belarusian Potash Company, may be revised, said President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko as he visited the Berezovsky mine of the Belarusian fertilizer manufacturer OAO Belaruskali on 17 July. “All the issues regarding Belarusian Potash Company should be handled by 1 September one way or another. We don’t need any more fuss regarding it even if we have to revise our relations with the Russians [Uralkali]. Let’s make strategic decisions. We need complete clarity,” said the head of state. “If they want to work independently, let them. BPC must be preserved in any case. Because in addition to selling potash fertilizers a potash company also has to deal with compound fertilizers”. Alexander Lukashenko underlined Belarusian Potash Company is a brand that hardly anyone will scrap today. “Either they [Uralkali] work together or go separate ways. But they won’t do that. They don’t need the breakup. It means an honest way should be followed,” said the President. “This is why all the issues must be addressed by 1 September. I am going to discuss it with the prime minister of Russia tomorrow,” said Alexander Lukashenko. БЕЛТА
