Karbalevich: Lukashenka’s short bench for officials is a myth
It is not difficult to find a replacement for sacked officials.
Analyst Valery Karbalevich has shared his opinion with Euroradio. We asked whether the today’s scandalous dismissals may result in appointing new people or the positions may be filled with officials from the old bench.
Karbalevich: "I think that the short substitutes' bench is a myth. You don’t need any talent to occupy administrative positions in Belarus, you don’t have to be a good manager or economist. You only need to stick to the President’s demands and fulfill them. They just need to be strict to subordinates and loyal to the current leader and regime.”
The scandalous dismissals are not only part of the Belarusian leader’s usual game of “a good tsar and bad boyars”, Karbalevich thinks. Borisovdrev announced that the enterprise was going to modernize the woodworking industry a year ago.
Karbalevich: “A year has passed, decrees were signed, credits were allocated according to the President’s special order. And there is no result!.. He is disappointed because the problem is not being solved. It is a purely emotional reaction.”
