Among them are the works of Olzhas Suleimenov, Lyubov Shashkova, Svetlana Ananyeva, Nurdaulet Akysh and other authors. The works of Abai and Nemat Kelimbetov have been translated into Belarusian. I am sure that new projects will be implemented within the framework of relations based on cooperation between the two countries," he said.
