Lukashenko holds meeting with senior executives of Grodno Oblast

“This is not a pre-election session, meeting or conference,” the head of state said at the beginning of the event. “The situation in Belarus requires more discussion, explanations, first of all, for the country's senior executives.”

The president remarked that a similar meeting was held in Mogilev. “Today we need to look into the information about what is going on in our country and to answer some pending, even if unpleasant, questions,” the Belarusian leader said.

“I am always pleased to come to Grodno Oblast. This is a wonderful region, the most comfortable place for life in our country. When you see well-kept fields, cleanness and order (almost everywhere in your region), you make sure once again that hard-working, sincere and committed people are living here. If you like, this is a calling card of Grodno Oblast and its people,” Aleksandr Lukashenko remarked.
