“The fact that they, the Americans, have begun lifting sanctions against us is something we should thank them for; it will make our work easier. This is also very important. While, as I told you, it is not the main focus of our work, we should not disregard it. It dominates the economy, and the economy is crucial for people’s livelihoods,” the head of state said.
A reminder, the U.S. President’s representative, John Coale, announced the decision to lift sanctions against the Belarusian air carrier Belavia during the Minsk meeting with Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko.
