The agenda included practically all spheres: from investment to social guarantees for the population. Of course, the external barriers imposed by the West against Belarus and Russia do affect our producers. But this is not a reason to panic. Practice has already proved: it is possible to work efficiently in such conditions. Now we need to pay attention to the key industries: potash and oil refining. In general, the industry is doing well, and so the economy feels confident.
What is needed now is swift work, quick decisions, control of important projects. Fundamental measures have been taken: the reorientation of exports from Ukraine and the EU to Russia and Asia and aggressive import substitution! The quality of this formula depends largely on the timing of its implementation.
We have to work together under the current conditions
The government in the near future will take a package of measures aimed at supporting businesses and enterprises. This was stated to journalists by First Deputy Prime Minister Nikolai Snopkov summing up the meeting. In the current situation they need to hear the message that the government and government agencies are partners for them.
Nikolai Snopkov, First Deputy Prime Minister of Belarus:
Everyone is working in the same difficult situation today. I cannot say "difficult". Uncomplicated, non-standard, unusual. It seems to me that, in principle, enterprises should have already felt the message that the government, the country, and the state authorities are partners. And today we talked again about how we must pull together and confront the problems that exist.
The main goal of the transformation: to give people the opportunity to - to work in peace and to minimize the impact of sanctions on society. There are reserves for growth even in today's difficult conditions.
