The potato injury won't heal.
At meetings in the Administration and at Belarusfilm, at field trips with officials, at seminars, ceremonial receptions and meetings with Putin, he talks about potatoes. Today he talked about potatoes at the ceremony of awarding graduates and teachers of higher education institutions, writes planbmedia.io.
Lukashenko reiterated that Belarusians should plant potatoes on their homestead plots on their own, so as not to complain about the lack of potatoes in stores in early spring.
"If I criticized you for the fact that you, having a dacha, two or three furrows, haven't planted potatoes and you don't have potatoes in March, I'm sorry," said Alexander Lukashenko. - I use this principle: before throwing a stone or criticizing someone, stand in front of a mirror and look at yourself. I always use this principle. Look at yourself. Look at your life, what you've done and what you haven't done, what you have to do."
Get out of TikTok
He also went through the complaints of educators, once again showing himself to be an expert on TikTok trends. He did not like, in particular, that teachers complain about the need to visit students at home.
"I read what our teachers wrote in TikToks. One wrote, and others react: "Here, they make you go to the pupils' homes, but there are such a lot of drunkards there, as soon as you go there...," said Lukashenko. He is sure that such visits are necessary. They say that in order to successfully transfer knowledge, one should see the student, pupil not only at lectures and lessons, but also know the situation at home, know his parents.
The critics of the decree, forcing to mow the personal plot and adjacent areas, also got it. Again Lukashenko trumped by personal example. "If someone is not ready to mow his own plot and five meters of the neighboring one, if there's an old lady there... It's not for me. I don't really understand it. I'm the president, and I need them to mow, but I walk with a scythe and I see nothing wrong in it.
So let's take Lukashenko's example: we mow our own plots, don't go heavy on potatoes, and "tiktokaka" at a minimum.
