"What, not paid again?" Lukashenka was shown off a miracle machine at Mak.by, which refused to work in his presence
State media filmed a detailed report showing Lukashenka being guided through the Mak.by restaurant and how wonderfully everything was organized there. But in one place, an embarrassing incident occurred.
At the beginning of the tour, Lukashenka stated that he, allegedly, not only had never been to McDonald's, which has now turned into Mak.by, but in his entire 71-year life, he had supposedly only spent no more than three years in ordinary restaurants, including Soviet ones.
Perhaps, precisely because of Lukashenka's inexperience, many elementary things, well-known and understandable to most visitors of such establishments, were explained to him in detail. Among other things, the director of the "Mak.by" chain, Viktoria Danko, together with First Deputy Prime Minister Nikolay Snopkov, dedicated a significant part of the report to presenting a self-service machine to him, through whose screen the user places an order and pays for it himself (as Lukashenka put it: "poked with a finger - paid").
Everything was fine until it came to payment. Although the order was successfully placed, payment with Snopkov's card failed — the system gave an error twice. Eventually, they walked away from the machine without getting it to work.
At the very moment the machine was "thinking," Snopkov decided to boast to Lukashenka that, allegedly, the most challenging task was to create the appropriate software, and instead of American software, local specialists developed their own. Lukashenka even expressed his gratitude: "Well done for that!", and the person responsible for this matter, delighted, began to report to him what exactly they had managed to achieve.
It was precisely then that the embarrassment occurred: the payment failed a second time, and Lukashenka, who was looking at the screen, noticed it. However, he did not publicly reprimand them, and the whole situation was turned into a joke as they moved on. Snopkov, already on his way, tried to finish his point: "This, of course, was an achievement. It's cool. All the software is ours."
