The Belarusian leader has again demanded to "strain everyone".

This is what the dictator said today during a working visit of the Kamenets district, Brest region, informs BelTA.

While reporting on socio-economic development of Brest region, Governor Kanstantin Sumar assured that by the end of this year the region plans to go on an average salary of 480-500 dollars.
