President: We must carefully discuss everything today — it concerns the fate of agriculture in an entire region

President: "We must carefully discuss everything today, because we are talking about the fate of agricultural production in an entire region. Perhaps this new experience for us will also be useful in the future."

Key issues highlighted by the First:

— How thoroughly are the state's interests taken into account.

— What investments are planned and in which areas.

— Will the adoption of the Decree help reverse the negative trend regarding such issues nationwide, not only in Vitebsk Oblast.

Lukashenko:

I want to warn immediately that transferring low-efficiency organizations to investors must not lead to local authorities withdrawing from oversight.
