The Belarusian Head of State noted that those awarded with diplomas and certificates are only a small part of people who have become holders of high titles and degrees. Aleksandr Lukashenko sets an important goal before scientists and leaders of the scientific sphere, “It is necessary to pay more attention to practice-oriented topics, what is acute nowadays, what we need today in our life: starting from military sciences, security and ending with peaceful life.”

The President drew attention to the great practical meaning of this task, “Enormous money is allocated for the demanded areas, and not only in Belarus. Mostly outside Belarus. In Russia, and not only in Russia.”

Aleksandr Lukashenko mentioned his talks with the UAE President, “We discussed the development of science and especially what science has received based on the exhibition that we saw. Everything is needed today, and they are ready to invest in everything. A lot of money is ready to be injected. But it is necessary to show the product, show its effectiveness, and then to expand production. They are ready to invest good money in all this.”

At the same time, the Belarusian leader stressed that today all countries are ready to invest big money in defence capability and in the most popular areas, including IT and microelectronics. And for us it is especially important. 

In this case, it is necessary to act promptly, Aleksandr Lukashenko believes, “This is the moment. The pendulum has swung in your direction, and it is necessary to use this time, because tomorrow will be too late. Tomorrow the world will calm down again and will rest on its laurels, on the achievements that you have received to date. It will be quiet and calm, everyone will live and ‘grow fat’ in a newly redistributed world. The world will be different. Nobody disputes this anymore. Therefore, we must seize the moment. Let’s use it and there will be a result. This is the basis of our independence. If there is no forward movement, moreover, a fast and powerful movement, there will be no sense.”
