“If we talk about the situation as a whole, I don’t want to say that it is absolutely rosy, that we easily go through this period, but it is controlled,” BelTA quotes Golovchenko as saying.
He also noted that some sectors in Belarus, even in a pandemic, are showing growth and avoiding a sharp drop in GDP - this is agriculture, construction, information and communications.
Earlier, Golovchenko, during a speech in parliament, called for ridding the country's economy of hydrocarbon dependence.
