Lukashenka explains when freeloaders' tax may be abolished

Alyaksandr Lukashenka has explained when the freeloaders’ tax may be abolished. The meeting ‘Big Talk with the President’ is being held at Minsk Belexpo this Friday. The President has answred Dzmitry Krot’s (SB. Belarus Today) question: “Has freeloading been eliminated?” The document affects ‘a small number of people’, Lukashenka said. These people ‘are being encouraged’ to work but nobody is forcing them.

"If we feel that the freeloaders’ tax is an anachronism, we will abolish it,” Lukashenka said.
