"New windows of opportunity are really opening up for our countries. With Western companies leaving the Union State market, huge niches are becoming available for us to explore. The question is what prevented us from doing it before - lobbyists, competition, corruption? Perhaps, all of it,” the Belarusian leader said.
According to Aleksandr Lukashenko, many countries, which have followed the great and thoughtlessly joined the sanctions, are now beginning to understand something: “Even act. Some Western companies have left Russia and Belarus. Some are coming back. Some did not even leave, just made a statement. In fact, these restrictive measures against Russia and Belarus, imposed by the USA and its allies, are becoming sanctions for the whole world. The established system of trade is being destroyed.”
The president stressed that sanctions make the states that impose them weaker. “To an even greater extent, they hurt those states. Take the European Union. There is not enough fuel there. Prices have gone up. There is not enough food. There are not enough fertilizers for the agricultural sector,” the head of state said.
"The countries that understand it, China in particular, oppose Western sanctions that destabilize the world market,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.
