The President of Belarus promises to assist Venezuela build a national air defense system as Caracas agrees to supply crude oil to Belorussian refineries.
"We can do this in a very short period of time," Alexander Lukashenko said following talks with his Venezuelan counterpart, Hugo Chavez.
Lukashenko added that with the new technology Venezuela will be able to live "peacefully" without worries about enemy conspiracies.
He made the offer during a two-day visit to Caracas aimed at solidifying industrial, commercial and diplomatic cooperation between the two nations.
Relations between Minsk and Caracas have strengthened dramatically in recent years.
Belarus and Venezuela trade about 1 million tons of crude a year (20,000 barrels a day), but beginning next May, the oil-rich South American nation will start exporting 80,000 barrel of oil a day to oil-thirsty Belarus.
