Lukashenko awards state honors to workers of major dairy company

Lukashenko said this is the first time he is presenting state awards in this format.

The occasion was to honor the achievements of one of the largest dairy companies in the country.

"These awards recognize the contributions of nearly 10,000 workers across your production companies, agricultural enterprises, branches, and trading houses — from Brest to Moscow, Almaty, and even geographically distant Dalian in China," the President said.

"Thanks to you, natural, healthy, and tasty Belarusian milk, cheeses, butter, yogurts, and ice cream are loved by adults and children in dozens of countries around the world."

"This entire national wealth is created by the hands of our hardworking people — people like you."
