There should be no vagueness either in the government or in the President Administration, Belarusian head of state Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he announced new appointments on 14 January, BelTA learned.

The president emphasized that executive discipline and responsibility for decisions will be the main requirement for all civil servants this year and the next five-year period.

“We need more focus and commitment in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. No blurred lines. Its employees are educated, intelligent people. There are no unintelligent diplomats. We need clear-cut requirements and executive discipline on the part of subordinates. That goes for everyone. There should be no vagueness either in the administration, the government or your ministry. If we follow this trend and work in this way, we will succeed,” Aleksandr Lukashenko emphasized. 

As an example, he cited the work on the investment program. “This is the most important document. I did not sign it. I returned it back to the government as usual. You send it to me again, and three or four people come to report to me. Those who prepared the program. Where's the alternative viewpoint? Are we going to build everything that is spelled out in the document? Is it worth investing in. I want a more thoughtful approach,” the head of state demanded.
