About 17 million people could live in Belarus, said today Prosecutor General. Andrei Shved noted that due to the losses suffered by our country during the Great Patriotic War, the economy is currently missing about half of GDP annually. The number of our population could be 80% higher. According to Andrey Shved, the scale of the tragedy of the Belarusian people turned out to be much bigger than previously thought.
