Krutoi outlines key discussion points for big meeting on Vitebsk Oblast
MINSK, 22 October (BelTA) - The preparations are in progress for a large meeting on sustainable development of Vitebsk Oblast due on 24 October, Head of the Belarus President Administration Dmitry Krutoi told the media following his report to the head of state in Minsk on 22 October, BelTA has learned.
A host of issues during the report to the president was about the preparations for the large meeting on ensuring the sustainable development of Vitebsk Oblast which is scheduled for 24 October.
The head of state is paying particular attention to the situation in the region, and there are a number of reasons for this. During his visit to Polotsk in 2024, which hosted the regional Dazhynki harvest festival, the president demanded that the leadership of Vitebsk Oblast thoroughly analyze the situation in each of its 21 districts and develop a clear, simple, and accessible development program for each district, a kind of program for the revival of Vitebsk Oblast.
In the spring of this year, Chairman of the Vitebsk Oblast Executive Committee Aleksandr Subbotin presented this document to the head of state. However, it turned out that the majority of the proposed measures were entirely underdeveloped. “As the president succinctly noted, it was essentially daydreaming and sent the documents back for revision,” Dmitry Krutoi said.
After almost six months, the revised program draft will be pitched again.
Furthermore, among the key topics of the meeting is the situation in the agricultural industry of Vitebsk Oblast where integrated structures were established some time ago. The effectiveness of this operational format and its prospects will be the subject of detailed discussion.
Another major topic is livestock loss and the measures necessary to improve the situation on this front, not only within Vitebsk Oblast but across the country as a whole.
