President raises questions on proposed expansion of Dribin District
The second topic of discussion was proposals to expand the Dribin District by incorporating agricultural lands from neighboring districts.
The President raised several questions on the matter:
❓ What do the Mogilev, Gorki, Chausy, and Shklov districts think about this?
💬 "I instructed the head of the Administration to make a large map so everyone can see what this district is and will be. Public opinion is very important, but after we explain to people what we want."
❓ Have possible consequences and next steps been worked out?
💬 "How much will this cost the budget and citizens, if anything? I assumed it would cost nothing. But if we need to support certain farms — we will."
❓ Most importantly, will there be a positive social and economic effect?
💬 "If Dribin District is to exist, we must think about what kind of district it should be. It should match the average size of districts in our country. That was our starting point."
