BelTA reports.

It is noted that Lukashenka stated the corresponding instruction at a meeting with the Minister of Health, the Prosecutor General and the Chairman of the State Security Committee.

“To refer to the fact that someone does not give us something, something is missing ... You know, our medical equipment and medicines are not under severe sanctions.

If the Americans don't sell you drugs, buy them in India, Cuba.

It's just a question of flexibility.

Therefore, references to the fact that we do not have enough medicines, or something else, are not accepted, ”Lukashenko said.

Earlier, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said that retail prices for essential goods and medicines should be constantly monitored in the Russian regions.
