Ragozhnik: Vitebsk region will ensure the necessary growth
There are no unsolvable tasks. We just need to find the tools to bring them to life. This was stated to journalists by the Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee, Alexander Rogozhnik, following the meeting with the President of Belarus on February 3 concerning certain issues of socio-economic development of the Vitebsk region.

The head of the region reported:
— Today, the President gave an absolutely objective assessment of the work of the entire region. This assessment is currently unsatisfactory, but we believe that, taking into account the decisions that will be made, starting from the second quarter, the region will ensure the necessary growth set by the Government. And the investment projects currently being implemented in the region, of which there are more than 100, will yield the necessary results. This alone will give us a growth of more than a billion rubles by 2026. Therefore, there are no unsolvable tasks. We just need to find the tools to bring them to life.
Alexander Rogozhnik also emphasized:
— To solve the tasks defined by the President and the Government, the Vitebsk region is also finding the necessary resources, of course. It cannot be said that this is only the republican budget, but within the framework of all decisions made at the Government level, from ensuring fertilizers, fuel and lubricants, and equipment, the Vitebsk region is not in a unique position. Like other regions of our country, Vitebsk receives as much as all the others. Therefore, it is out of the question to say that the Vitebsk region is stagnant.
The Chairman of the Regional Executive Committee believes:
— Today, the state has enough tools that allow for the implementation of all the projects I mentioned. This ranges from programs for the development of small towns to the implementation of various innovative projects. Therefore, the most important thing today is to have the project itself, which is interesting and profitable.
