He added that the two sides were in talks at various levels to increase the export of livestock products from Russia.

In June, Chehayeb visited Russia but no bilateral agreements were signed.

Earlier this month, Lebanese Ambassador to Moscow Chawki Bou Nassar told Sputnik that the two countries may sign a memorandum of understanding on bilateral agriculture cooperation before the end of the year.
