The gift was brought to Zimbabwe by a “delegation of Belarusian women” – as indicated in a statement by the Pul First channel, which is close to the press services Lukashenka.
It was also indicated there that the first lady Auxillia Mnangagwa she received “potatoes from the personal farm of the head of state”. There are two most popular varieties of Belarusian potatoes, which the First Lady of Zimbabwe reportedly appreciated during her visit to Minsk.
Potatoes for the first lady. She challenged Lukashenko
Mnangagwa asked Belarusian women to tell Lukashenko that she is announcing a competition and a challenge for the leader BelarusThe winner will be the one whose potatoes will grow better.
A funny gift is a testimony though increasingly closer cooperation and better relations between Minsk and African countries. Zimbabwe imports not only agricultural products from Belarus, but also household appliances, cosmetics and light industry products.
Lukashenko visited the African country last year. He was received with honors. There was no shortage of gifts either. The leader of Belarus received a stuffed lion, and Emmerson Mnangagwa received a Belarusian tractor.
