Topic: “A HEALTHY NATION AS THE BASIS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF BELARUS”
The future of any country is primarily about healthy citizens. As President of the Republic of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has repeatedly stressed, “The health of any nation is the key to its sustainable development and prosperity.” That is why it is important today to preserve a healthy nation and raise a strong generation. And the state’s attention to this topic is always the most intense.
In this regard, an affordable and efficient healthcare system is the most important priority of the state policy of the Republic of Belarus, this is a major achievement of our country.
In Belarus, every citizen, regardless of their level of wealth or social status, has the opportunity to receive any type of medical care free of charge, including the most high-tech ones. This is a guarantee from the state.
The right to health protection is enshrined in the Constitution of the Republic of Belarus, and the State has committed itself to creating conditions for affordable medical care for all citizens.
Belarus is one of the few countries in the post–Soviet space and the European region where the budgetary system of healthcare financing has been preserved and adapted to socio-economic conditions. The total cost of healthcare in our country is about 5.0% of GDP. For comparison, in 2024, 3.7% of GDP was allocated to healthcare in Russia.
An extensive network of healthcare institutions has been established and is successfully operating in the republic. Any citizen of the country has the opportunity to receive medical care promptly, special attention is paid to rural areas. Primary medical care is provided in every locality, from paramedic and obstetric centers to district and city hospitals and polyclinics. Today, 14 inter-district centers are successfully operating, where residents of remote areas can receive specialized medical care. In addition, a network of inter-district offices and offices is being developed in multidisciplinary healthcare institutions with the latest technical base and equipped with qualified specialists.
Accessibility of medical care is one of the main attributes of the Belarusian welfare state. And this is a direct way to develop the regions, preserve and strengthen the demographic potential of Belarus.
Undoubtedly, the foundation of a healthy, strong and independent Belarusian state is the ongoing policy in the field of healthcare. And our medicine is at a high level: scientific and practical centers equipped with the latest technology, professional expertise, advanced treatment technologies, high-tech operations.… By many indicators, Belarus is at the top of the world and surpasses a number of major countries.
Of particular importance are such factors as a favorable environment, access to high-quality and safe food, the creation of conditions for the development of mass physical culture, the formation of an active health-saving attitude of citizens, and attention to the younger generation.
All the opportunities in the country have been created. At the same time, as President Alexander Lukashenko rightly noted, “The health of the nation is a concern not only for doctors, but also for each of us. Without physical activity and sports, there will be no healthy children, people, or a healthy nation as a whole” (Message to the Belarusian people and the National Assembly, April 19, 2019).
So, dear Belarusians, be healthy and happy!
