First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa met Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko in Minsk on 11 April 2023.

According to BelTA, Lukashenko said that Mnangagwa asked for help in establishing a system similar to the Belarusian one in the area of maternity services, help for children, especially newborns, and child nutrition. Lukashenko was quoted as saying:

Dear Mrs. Auxillia Mnangagwa, as we agreed with the president, you are in Belarus today on a very important visit.

I am fulfilling the request of my friend President Emmerson so that the technologies that are in demand in Zimbabwe are in your country.

We are ready to help you implement several projects at the request of your country and your president to build high-tech enterprises. First of all, this concerns humanitarian activities.

In short, women and children are the priority, and Emmerson told me this many times during my visit to your country.

Lukashenko said during his engagements with Mnangagwa or a recent State visit to Zimbabwe, they agreed that there was a need for a responsible person from Zimbabwe to oversee the implementation of the relevant programmes. He said:

Frankly speaking, I told him that this responsible person should be you.

Lukashenko said during her visit to Belarus, Mnangagwa got familiar with the opportunities available in the country. Said Lukashenko:

The doors were open everywhere. So you are welcome to choose and decide, and we will start to act.

Mnangagwa is on a visit to Belarus following the agreements on cooperation in humanitarian affairs reached by the two heads of state.

During her one-week stay in Belarus, Mnangagwa visited a number of enterprises and organizations of the Healthcare Ministry and the Belarusian infant nutrition company Bellakt in the Grodno Region.

She also held meetings at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Belarusian Women’s Union and visited the Khatyn Memorial complex.
