Belarus should kick-start a new academic year, Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he heard out a report of Education Minister Igor Karpenko on 24 August, BelTA has learned.

“It is important to keep learning in all times. It will be very bad if we do not get off to a good start. You remember that the closing of the previous academic year was fraught with the coronavirus anxieties in the society, in particular among parents. Those concerns were excessive, as we know see,” the president noted.

“We need to kick-start the academic year whatever the cost,” the Belarusian leader emphasized.
