Lukashenko: Changes in Belarus will be measured, not revolutionary

MINSK, 14 January (BelTA) – The government will introduce changes, but these changes will be careful and incremental, not radical, Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko said at a meeting with senior members of the Council of Ministers on 14 January, BelTA has learned.

“We will stick to the principles of the state economic policy that we have been shaping for years, no matter how much some might lament calling for changes. Changes are needed, but they are already underway and will continue, therefore life goes on. However if someone wants the changes that will disrupt the ongoing policy, this will never happen. The election is ahead, there will be alternative candidates who will suggest the destruction of the old system and changes; and people will make their choice. We will implement our plans in a consistent and determined manner. These changes will be absolutely deliberate, not revolutionary,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.

He emphasized that the state will always put people and their interests first. “There are all kinds of people. Some of them demand what the government is not supposed to do. However, we do not have other people and we should listen to the people we have,” the president said.
