Industrial companies of the Lugansk People’s Republic have launched cooperation with partners in friendly states, said LPR Industry and Trade Minister Timur Samatov.   “Our enterprises supply their products not only to Russian regions, but also to friendly states. <...> LPR companies are cooperating with partners in Kazakhstan, Belarus, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan,” Samatov told the Lugansk Media Center.   The LPR Industry and Trade Ministry has been arranging business trips, exhibitions and presentations to develop cooperation, and the marketing campaign has yielded contracts with companies from Russian regions, he said.    LPR companies are working with “Russian Export Center" to enlist state support for non-resource non-energy exports and international presentations to enter markets outside Russia. They can also apply for participation in the corporate competitiveness program which offers easy-term loans to Russian enterprises engaging in exports and production, investment and construction projects in foreign states, the minister said.   Samatov earlier said that LPR enterprises had overcome the economic blockade and successfully integrated in Russian industrial policy. *i*ie
