KIROVSK DISTRICT, 28 August (BelTA) – Belarusians should know that the country has a sufficient supply of potatoes, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said at a meeting to discuss pressing issues in the development of potato farming in Belarus, BelTA has learned.
Addressing the participants, the president noted that the meeting is primarily symbolic. He recalled that in the past, the topic of potatoes gained public resonance, including in the mass media.
“Thank God, we don't have a hot war in the country. But the information war is heating up. If we don’t address these issues [referring to fake news], it will be bad for our future. That is why our people must know that, as usual, there are enough potatoes in Belarus. We have more than enough for this year and the next one until the new harvest,” the president said.
