The Belarusian people exhausted limits on revolutions in the last century: Lukashenka made an appeal
President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko made an address to the people and the National Assembly (parliament of Belarus). Lukashenka signed a decree on convening an extraordinary session of parliament in Minsk to hear the president's annual message and resolve other issues on July 24.
Traditionally, the President of Belarus makes an address in the spring, but this year it was postponed due to the coronavirus.
In his address, Lukashenka stressed that the nation needs a strong state against the background of recent events in the world. Of course, he touched on the relations between Russia and Belarus, accusing Moscow of replacing fraternal relations with partnerships. But at the same time, he stressed, Russia will always be an ally of Belarus, "no matter who is in power."
- said the Belarusian leader, adding that Russia is afraid of losing Belarus, because she (Russia) no longer has real allies in the world.
He also paid attention to the "oil showdown" with Russia, saying that because of them Minsk lost more than $ 600 million. All in all, according to the Belarusian authorities, the republic has lost about $ 9,5 billion over five years from expensive loans and "unfair prices for energy resources."
With regard to the policy of the state, Lukashenko noted that Belarus "is not friends with someone against someone, but is developing a multi-vector foreign policy." He called the republic "the only calm link in the center of Eurasia, living with its own mind." He stressed that the country has exhausted the limits of "revolutions and destruction" in the last century, so there will be no redistribution of property.
he said, also rejecting a call for a return to the 1994 constitution. According to Lukashenka, such a return will be "a gift to criminals and the criminal business." In addition, he denied rumors about the privatization of agricultural land.
And, of course, Lukashenko, who met for his sixth presidential term, denied rumors of alleged fraud ahead of the presidential elections.
- he said.
At the same time, he urged his opponents "not to get underfoot" and not "interfere with saving the country." And the citizens of the republic Lukashenka urged not to believe the presidential candidates, "promising mountains of gold", since miracles do not happen.
And of course, Lukashenka commented on the detention of Russian citizens, saying that they were sent specifically to Belarus, and all other statements are lies. According to him, they testified that they were sent specifically to the republic, and tickets to Istanbul are a legend.
- he added.
