What Belarus will always do is woodworking and agriculture. This is what the President of the Republic Alexander Lukashenko said during a meeting of the Republican Seminar on modern approaches to regional development.
"These are two areas that no one will refuse in Belarus - no matter who works here."
He added that these areas have been developing in the Shklov region since the days of the Soviet Union.
"After that, you have to develop what already exists. We have half the country, more than 40 percent is forest. God ordered it to be done. You have to engage in deep processing to leave all the added value here. Two factories were created here. I supported the location of a newsprint factory here, not because it's a shack, but because it's the plant center of the plant forest."
The president also emphasized that the best quality products are Belarusian.
"Known all over the world. Why not do it? It requires modern machinery, and that's what we do. Our agricultural machinery industry has been good since the days of the Soviet Union, now it has been taken to a new level, but the quality needs to improve."
