He said that this &#8220;very good indicator&#8221; demonstrated &#8220;the benefits of integration&#8221; between Belarus and Russia.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t In turn, Luka\u0161enka said: &#8220;It is very important now, at the beginning of the year, to be in a position to resist any economic pressure.&#8221; He stressed that various restrictions were in effect &#8220;not only against Belarus, but also against Russia.&#8221; &#8220;It is more difficult for us with these sanctions. That&#8217;s why I would like to inform you on this issue as well,&#8221; Luka\u0161enka said.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t He said he was glad to &#8220;at least dilute the Western elite a little,&#8221; referring to Putin&#8217;s recent numerous talks with world leaders.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t Last year, according to Luka\u0161enka, the economies of Belarus and Russia &#8220;were developing at a really good pace.&#8221; &#8220;As you have correctly said, the development of the economy already shows that nothing will work for them, they will not be able to strangle us in any way. I think we will agree to create more momentum here,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>February 18, BPN.
