The BBC Russian service reported that such instructions have already been sent out by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection. It quoted the president of the Belarusian Union of Entrepreneurs Alexander Patupa, who stated:" In fact, we can ignore all that and not follow these stupid instructions.
