MINSK, 18 November (BelTA) – It is still necessary to equalize incomes in the countryside and incomes in urban areas, the task remains on the watch list. Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko made the statement during a solemn assembly held to honor top agribusiness performers, BelTA has learned.
Aleksandr Lukashenko stressed that without intensive and meticulous work, without innovations and mutual assistance it is impossible to achieve high results. Prosperity can be achieved only through creative labor, he noted. “You and I have accomplished a lot.

“The task of income leveling in the countryside and in urban areas remains topical. It remains on the watch list.
