Belarus’ space flights program will be continued, Deputy Head of the Aerospace Activities Department of the National Academy of Sciences Ivan Bucha told BelTA. 

“The main thing right now is the completion of this flight [of the first Belarusian cosmonaut Marina Vasilevskaya], the fulfillment of everything we’ve planned. A decision on whether the program will continue or not will be made on the basis of the results,” the academy’s representative said. 

“Taking into account the interest of the country and our president’s attitude to this flight, I think it will be continued,” Ivan Bucha stressed.
