12:59, 12 February

A foreign policy doctrine meeting the needs of a modern Belarusian state will be developed within a year, Belarus' Minister of Foreign Affairs Vladimir Makei said in an exclusive interview to Belarus 1 TV channel during the 6th Belarusian People's Congress, BelTA has learned.

“Our task is to assess and analyze the existing and future challenges and threats and develop an adequate response to them within the competence of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,” the minister explained.

The minister added: “I do not think that the new concept will deny the old one, and we will give up all the positive things that existed. Not at all. The basic things will stay, but we will have to take into account some changes in our relations, for example, with the collective West, and the sanctions rhetoric from some of our external partners. I think that within a year we will be able to work out this document and develop a foreign policy doctrine that will meet the needs of the modern Belarusian state.”
