Belarusians Lack Money for Food: True Stories

People discuss the situation in the country.

The issue of the economic crisis in Belarus is actively discussed on social networks.

Thus, the Belarusian Nika Wegosky posted on Facebook:

"Once I arrived in Minsk and the first three phrases I heard: a student "I know what I ate today - nothing", a builder "I haven't eaten anything today - I am starving", and on that day a tidy old lady approached me in "Evroopt" in Malinovka and asked me to pay for her bread.

A working person once admitted that he had bought food by installment. Tell me, do you often face poverty? When there is not enough money for food?"

The message sparked a lively discussion. Charter97.org collected the most outstanding comments:

"I don't have any money for lunch tomorrow."

"Yesterday, a young guy asked for 20 kopecks. He didn't look like an alcoholic. More like an outcast.

"I faced... On days like these, the priority is food for a cat, and I will not gain weight".

"Constantly! At the cash desk, people often learn that they don't have enough money."

"It is almost normal in Belarus..."

"That's how we live. Now there is enough food, but there is no work. It's suspense. But I believe in a better future."
