Lukashenka: Russia Gives Money At Much Higher Interest Rates Than IMF

The dictator told about multibillion-dollar debts.

Lukashenka said this at a meeting with the Russian media community representatives today, BelTA correspondent reports.

The dictator stressed that even if there is a certain credit support from Russia, then, first of all, this is done at a much higher interest rate than the IMF loans. On the other hand, Russia credits the end consumer, who produces goods, including those from Russian components.

“It's nonsense, that Russia feeds Belarus. Even if there is some support, it is done at a much higher interest rate than the one that the IMF gives us,” – Lukashenka said.
