MINSK, 20 March (BelTA) – Belarus' 2024 budget execution was balanced, Finance Minister Yuri Seliverstov told reporters ahead of the ministry's board meeting, BelTA has learned.
“Last year ended quite well. You know, we had projected a budget deficit. Yet, by and large, we did not have a deficit. The budget execution was balanced, and this is exactly what the head of state and the government want of us. The economy fared as planned. This pertains to revenues, profit, export duties on goods - everything was received in the amount planned, even with a certain surplus. Thanks to this, our budget was balanced,” Yuri Seliverstov said.
