THE IMPACT OF SANCTIONS ON ENSURING THE ECONOMIC SECURITY OF BELARUS

Abstract

The article discusses the problem of economic security in the context of the use of sanctions by Western countries for economic and political pressure. They change the external conditions for the functioning of the Belarusian economy and have a serious impact on the country's economy, restricting access to the development of new technologies and closing foreign markets. This has a direct impact on ensuring the economic security of the state, slowing down the growth rate of production, creating problems in solving the social aspects of the development of society, slowing down the growth rate of the level and quality of life of the population. At the same time, the application of sanctions leads to the development of import-substituting industries, development on the basis of our own resources, and the search for new strategic partners. Measures to ensure the economic security of Belarus in the new geopolitical conditions are considered. Ensuring the economic security of Belarus depends on many factors, and therefore it is necessary to develop a strategy to eliminate the negative consequences of sanctions, within the framework of which the economy should be reoriented to the development of high-tech industries, promote the production of competitive products, actively look for and develop new logistics chains in the development of trade relations, look for new markets for Belarusian products, and more actively use the capabilities of the Union State.
