Belarus - the birthplace of not only potatoes and tractors. The republic also produces such products as black and red caviar. This was told by the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko. At a meeting with the chairman of the State Customs Committee of the country, Yuriy Senko, on Tuesday, January 30, Batka complained that he receives reproaches from Russia for the fact that illegal shipments of sanctions products from third countries through the territory of the republic. "In the press very often, and officials have expressed their claims that the Belarusian shrimp, caviar, something else," - complained to Lukashenka.

However, in his opinion, the reproaches are heard from envious and haters of the republic who are unable to rejoice that "in Belarus they began producing both black and red caviar": "We learned to do, well done! Let it be in artificial conditions, but it is not worse than, say, in other countries, "- said Lukashenko. Previously, Russian customs officials uncovered a network of illegal supply of counterfeit products from Belarus: according to documents, fruits and vegetables were locally produced, but the examination showed that they were grown in countries of Eastern and Western Europe and even Africa.
