Lukashenko: Belarus is totally self-sufficient in food

         Belarus is totally self-sufficient in food and sells about half of produced foodstuffs abroad, President of the Republic of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has said as he met with students and teaching staff of the Belarusian State Agrarian Technical University.
        Alexander Lukashenko emphasized that of all the types of security, the food security is particularly important, because hunger uprisings are a great threat to any state and a tragedy for the society.
According to the President, now Belarus fully meets its needs in foodstuffs and sells about half of the food abroad. In 2012, it was estimated at over $5 billion, and is to make $7 billion by the end of 2015.
