MINSK, 24 February (BelTA) – Belarus' socio-economic development program for the next five years, i.e. 2026-2030, is in the works, Belarusian Prime Minister Roman Golovchenko told the Belarus 1 TV channel, BelTA reports.

“The work on the program is in full swing. We can say that the draft is ready. We have decided on key points. We have also determined priorities. We still have time. We are currently holding internal discussions. Most likely, the general idea of the program will have to be presented at the Belarusian People's Congress [its next meeting is scheduled for April this year],” the prime minister said.

He emphasized that it is the general layout of the program that will be presented: “These are our priorities and the tools we are going to use to achieve [the goals]. The program will be reviewed in the second half of the year in line with a plan. Intensive discussions are underway.”

When asked whether the country's economy fares well at the beginning of 2025, Roman Golovchenko said: “January was good. Better than expected. Investments increased by more than 20%. Trade was also doing well, so was the manufacturing industry, despite a number of headwinds. Thus, the performance in January was good. But we need to maintain momentum throughout the entire quarter.”
