ORSHA, 8 November (BelTA) – While visiting Orsha City Hospital No. 1 on 6 November Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said that he did not mind criticism and competition, but this should not run afoul of the law, BelTA has learned.
During his visit to the hospital, Aleksandr Lukashenko recalled the events of last year. He noted that there can always be people among the medical personnel who have a different point of view, of course. This is natural, the head of state emphasized. “However, you should be the face of the nation and behave decently. The only problem is that some violated the law,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.
The president noted that during meetings or discussions he wants to hear all kinds of opinions from officials, their personal points of view. At the same time, they should keep in mind that they are working for the state and should stick to the established policy. In this regard, he recalled his recent visit to the Ustensky innovative dairy complex in Orsha District: not all officials supported this project. Yet, it was decided during a discussion that this farm should be built.
“Opinions collide as we are trying to arrive at the right decision. There should be competition everywhere, I am for it. But don't break the law. If we don't stop this violation of the law in society now, our children will clash with each other, like in the West. Why are they trying to rock the boat here all the time? They in the West do not like our reality. But we need stability,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.
