The head of state recalled that issues concerning the development of domestic science were recently discussed at a large-scale meeting (the meeting to discuss the development of the scientific sector and the activities of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus on 21 November 2025): “At that time, a number of old, recurring issues were raised. Unfortunately, there was nothing new in the remarks of Vladimir Stepanovich [Karanik, Chairman of the Presidium of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus] regarding the development and, perhaps, the reform or modernization of our Academy of Sciences. However, we agreed that we would prepare a draft decree on improving scientific activity in general, and that you would submit this draft decree for consideration.
