A.Lukashenka comments on US sanctions

A. Lukashenka explained the necessity of increasing the number of trade contacts at a conference on foreign policy issue on March 27.

"All our “informed people” are saying that we will have economic problems because the Americans have exercised pressure on us, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also reports it”, - noted A.Lukashenka. According to him, US sanctions imposed on Belarus should be compensated by the diversification of export.

Alyaksandr Lukashenka stresses that the number of countries to export our goods to should have been increased long ago. “We cannot rely only on Russia, the European Union and the USA”.
