MINSK, 29 August (BelTA) – The government will provide social support for teachers, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko told Belarusian pedagogues on 29 August.
Commenting on the report by one of the speakers who called for increasing financial incentives for teachers, Alexander Lukashenko suggested looking at the situation from a different perspective. “Where is the money? We have given so much money to the people, and now we are reaping the fruits of this policy. Economic laws are objective, no matter if we want it or not. We need money to do this. Therefore, if we have money - we will do it, if not – we will not print it, money has to be earned,” the President said.
At the same time the head of state said, “I am aware that we are out of options, though all global financial organizations and creditors demand that we should not raise salaries, pensions and allowances. What they say makes sense, but our economy is socially oriented; I understand that people want to eat every day and we should support them at least minimally. Therefore, we are set to increase pensions and student allowances and will keep doing it”.
According to the head of state, the government might provide teachers with Br400,000-600,000 allowances depending on the budget situation.
However, Alexander Lukashenko emphasized that these financial incentives should pay off in the future.
