He also called for building roads to satellite towns.

Lukashenka spoke about the overpopulation of Minsk and referred to the experience of Moscow.

“Total traffic jams, they need to build interchanges, roads, and so on, on a huge scale. How can it be pleasant for a person to live in this reinforced concrete “clothing”, and all around cars, cars, cars?” Lukashenka described the horrors of life in the Russian capital.

According to him, Belarus has placed its bets on the satellite towns of Dziarzhynsk, Zaslauye, Lahoisk, Smaliavichy, Fanipal and the village of Rudzensk. He noted that you can quickly get to Minsk from them, but travel time can be reduced even more.

“We need to think about building faster sections, independent of highways. I don't think it will take much time or a lot of money,” he said.
