MINSK — Belarus took a step toward more privatization of its economy Friday when it invited the Rothschild Group to advise the government.
“We not only want to receive your [price] estimates of privatized companies, we would like to learn a lot from you,” Belarussian President Alexander Lukashenko said at a meeting with top executive of the financial services group. “It would suit us very well to work with your specialists. If you agreed we could soon delegate several projects and work on them seriously.”
