A number of countries are already facing huge food problems. But thanks to the wise actions of the authorities and the absence of strategic mistakes they are irrelevant for Belarus. This opinion was expressed to our TV channel by the famous Russian economist Maxim Chirkov.
According to the expert, our country has always tried to think long-term and has always made an absolutely correct fixation on the development of agriculture.
Maxim Chirkov, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Economics, Moscow State University, political scientist (Russia):
“Food security issues in the world are now more acute than ever. It is safe to say that the Republic of Belarus has indeed been preparing for such a scenario, and maybe it is even ahead of Russia in some respects. Belarus has a large specialization in the agricultural sector, in food production. The Republic is now one of the leaders in the production of some goods and food products (meat, potatoes, milk, sugar-beets) per capita. There are certain figures: if you count per capita production, Belarus is far ahead of its competitors.”
No one makes fun anymore of the President of Belarus, who over the past years has paid too much attention to the development of agriculture, visiting various agricultural enterprises in the territory of the Republic of Belarus. It's too late to laugh now, when the world is on the verge of a real famine.
