Belarus state leader thinks that there should be state-owned media



She asked whether it was worth it to set the newspapers free from the state instead of creating the newspaper holding.

Lukashenka: If the newspapers liberated from the state, I would stand for that. However, I think that every country has state-owned media – in different scope and turnout”.  

“This is incorrect to say that our media are neglected. We need to have state-owned media in order to play a noticeable role in this sector”.

“The main initiator of the holding creating is the SB Editor-in-Chief Pavel Yakubovich. Let him tell you about this”.
