MINSK, 7 October (BelTA) - A story about Parokhonsk, an agro-town in Pinsk District, which Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko visited a few days ago, was shown on the Belarus 1 TV Channel,
BelTA has learned.
On Friday morning the president was welcomed in the fields of the Parokhonskoye agricultural enterprise. Aleksandr Lukashenko outlined the Polesie revival program and talked to local residents. He also paid attention to the youngest residents of the agro-town.
Students and teachers were waiting to greet the president at the local school. Matvei said that he wanted to shake hands with the head of state, but it did not happen this time. The boy has no doubts, however, that one day he will be able to shake hands with Aleksandr Lukashenko.
Yevgeny got luckier that day. The president approached the student and talked to him. “We are future husbands and should know how to do everything, whether to put up a shelf or make a cupboard,” Yevgeny said confidently.
Parokhonsk is a multinational agro-town. It is home to Belarusians, Kazakhs, Ukrainians and Russians. Vitaly Barchuk moved here from Ukraine in 2014 and has worked as a tractor driver here since then.
The man admitted that Belarusians are a very friendly people and treat him really well. By the way, the Parchuks became parents four times while living in Parokhonsk.
Parokhonsk is an exemplary agro-town which boasts successful farming, developed infrastructure, and many jobs. The residents praise Aleksandr Lukashenko’s chosen course, which prioritizes agriculture, the main source of income for the residents of Parokhonsk. Farmers are the ones who can see the true value of the state policy in this sector of economy.
