Lukashenko comments on Belarus' approaches to coronavirus situation

MINSK, 8 May (BelTA) - The methods chosen in Belarus to tackle the coronavirus have been conditioned by a fairly well-developed national healthcare, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he met with the participants of the war commemorative event in All Saints Memorial-Church in Minsk on 8 May, BelTA has learned.

The head of state noted that Belarus has chosen pinpoint tactics to tackle the coronavirus rather than a full-front strategy.

“We have always looked after the healthcare sector. We have not given it into private hands. It was not easy for us. We are not a rich country, it costs us dearly. But it will pay back a hundredfold,” he said.
