Today we are transferring 431 people from the existing production, and further we have drawn up a schedule: by the end of the year (by January 1, 2026, we will have to reach one hundred percent capacity utilization of this production complex), the staff will be fully staffed," reported the General Director of MAZ, Valery Ivankovich.
"They built it well. They know how to do it," the President assessed the production site. Alexander Lukashenko himself compared the technological stage to aircraft manufacturing, as the equipment is not created on an assembly line; it is very delicate work, true craftsmanship.
