Lukashenko: sanctions against Belarus have affected all stages of production process

The restrictions introduced against Belarus have touched on all the stages of the production process, said President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko at a meeting on socio-economic policy.

“Domestic enterprises, indeed, are faced with barriers artificially created on the outer circuit. They have affected all the stages of the production process: the purchase of raw materials and materials, transportation, calculations, finances, credit support, sales for export,” Lukashenko quotes the agency quoted the words BelTA.

The Belarusian leader emphasized that “difficulties are not a reason for panic, but also counting that the situation itself will resolve is not worth it.” At the same time, Lukashenko set the government to “support state employees, pensioners, socially vulnerable citizens” to the government: “Everything that promised, must be done, no matter what it costs.”

He also ordered to stop the outflow of specialists in regional cities and Minsk. “Through the provision of housing, the distribution of university specialists, benefits and so on are your questions,” Lukashenko said, referring to the government and regions heads.
