It's how I live my life. I'm guessing this is your lifestyle too. So after the intense period of your life of leading the government, a change of scenery will hep you take a breather. Maybe you will not have time for this. Because I am planning to keep you busy,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said. “I want very experienced, strong people, organizers and economists to be in charge of the economy during this five-year period.
