Sanctions: fight against economic

The President of Belarus noted that the sanctions imposed against the country are not punishment for dictatorship. According to him, they arose in response to fierce global competition, where economic growth is placed above all else. He cited examples of countries with dictators and monarchies in the East that attract foreign investment, build resorts and military facilities without questions. "God forbid we succumb to foreign promises," he said, "and then the real destruction of our state will begin," emphasized the president. In official materials, he also stressed that the sanctions aim to protect the country's economy from external pressure. The full speech can be viewed via the link provided in the message.
