Plans with Iran, Venezuela, future trip to Africa, focus on strategic projects in President's Week

The work schedule of the Belarus president is always full of events. Aleksandr Lukashenko holds conferences and working meetings on the most topical matters concerning the country's development, regularly visits the regions, goes on foreign trips and welcomes foreign guests, talks to reporters, signs decrees and laws. And even if there are no public events, it does not mean that the head of state does not work. It must be said that even when he relaxes, for instance, by playing ice hockey or chopping firewood, Aleksandr Lukashenko happens to find the time to give yet another instruction. All the decisions must be prompted by life, he likes to say.

The President's Week project is intended for those, who want to keep up with the head of state, be up-to-date on the latest statements and decisions of the Belarusian leader.

Key results of past week's international meetings of the president: how Belarus and Iran counteract sanctions and what is the most important thing right now; when Aleksandr Lukashenko intends to go to Equatorial Guinea; what revision of relations with Venezuela is supposed to produce and what gap should be plugged in cooperation with Russia's Republic of Mordovia.

The realization of large-scale strategic projects is also covered. Why even instructions of the head of state are not fulfilled on time, whose lies sometimes interfere with getting things done, what results Aleksandr Lukashenko expects from scientists, when this sphere will undergo a comprehensive inspection, and whether a council under the president will help establish effective work or not. These and other matters are covered by the new episode of BelTA's special project President's Week.
