After 1996 it became clear where we were heading and what needed to be done. And I believe that the most important thing was that the socio-economic development program was adopted at that time, with the social market economy becoming the main benchmark, including three main directions — export, agriculture, and housing construction. And practically we have been moving in this direction since 1996, — noted Boris Vasilievich during the solemn event "The Connecting Thread," held to mark the 30th anniversary of Belarusian parliamentarism and taking place today at the Museum of Glory of Mogilev.

Boris Baturo pointed out that Belarus has accomplished enormous work in 30 years.

— Industry and agriculture are developing, housing is being built, huge sums are being invested in the development of the social sphere, and the level of wages is rising. This is how the chosen path of constructive development of the country is being manifested, — he added.
