Development of Belarusian science discussed with President

A big talk on the prospects of Belarusian science took place at the Palace of Independence. Participants of the working group to analyze the activity of the National Academy of Sciences have been invited to the meeting. The working group was set up on the instructions of the President. Aleksandr Lukashenko urges not to make hasty conclusions, but to scrutinize the issues and set the right tasks. The process of electing members of the Academy of Sciences is underway now. According to the President, the significance of scientific developments for the state should be the most important criterion for selection. The continuity of generations is also important, namely the presence of one's own scientific school and an active civic position. The President is convinced that Belarusian scientists should be at the forefront of addressing strategic economic and social problems.
