Belarus and Argentina have signed an intergovernmental agreement on visa-free travel for citizens of the two countries, the press service of the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported.

The document was concluded in Minsk during the Belarusian-Argentinean ministerial consultations. The parties discussed joint steps in intensifying the Belarusian-Argentinean relations.
