The Belarusian real sector has adapted to sanctions, and economic drivers are on the rise. The traditional leader is industry. The Minsk Motor Plant is just one example. MMZ exports increased by about 10% in the first 6 months of the year compared to the same period last year. The figures prove that the troubled 1990s or the current Western sanctions are not an obstacle. The Minsk Motor Plant was commissioned almost two decades after the end of the war. The production was to become an important link in the chain of domestic automobile manufacturing, and this was the focus. First of all, the plant workers mastered the production of diesel engines for MTZ tractors. And today the enterprise is the leading manufacturer of engines in the CIS. Equipment with Minsk engines operates on 5 continents in more than 120 countries of the world.
