According to Aleksandr Lukashenko, Belarus will continue to develop national scientific schools in order to give new generations of young scientists a wide field of opportunities for self-realization.
“We live in the era of unprecedented scientific progress. We are not to choose the time. It is time that chooses. It is time that sets us tasks today, one more difficult than the other. The tasks that cannot be solved without science, without you, dear scientists. It is impossible to move forward without real science. That is why the state pays close attention to science,” the Belarusian leader said.
