President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko believes it is necessary to work harder introducing economic management methods, encouraging the inflow of investments, reducing expenses and prime costs of products, expanding the market for selling products and services. Alexander Lukashenko made the statement at a session involving Vitebsk oblast top government officials on November 25. Alexander Lukashenko underscored, reaching all the goals outlined by the five-year development plan is the key target. This is why more effective and purposeful work is necessary. “Putting it baldly, it will not be easy. Especially taking into account the global situation. The time requires everyone to show the strictest responsibility, energy, and perseverance in reaching the outlined goals. The wellbeing of specific companies and the entire country depends on it,” said the head of state. Alexander Lukashenko underscored, the advantage of Belarus’ development model allows neutralising the negative impact of the global financial crisis on economy to a large extent. “However, we cannot keep off these phenomena away with ‘an iron curtain’ and should take them into account in our work,” he said.
