Belarus proposed to immortalize Russia

Political scientist Yuri Voskresensky, speaking at the All-Belarusian People’s Assembly, proposed to perpetuate the memory of Belarusian-Russian relations and name one of the Minsk squares in honor of Russia. Tut.by informs about it.

“I consider it necessary to raise the issue of renaming one of the avenues or squares of the capital in honor of Russia, otherwise there is Bangalore, but Russia is not,” he explained.

Earlier, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko at the All-Belarusian People’s Assembly called on the supporters of the peaceful and calm development of the country to clench their teeth, get together and go through a difficult period.

On February 11 it became known that Lukashenko wanted to make another visit to Russia. He expects to receive another three billion dollars in addition to the one and a half billion allocated earlier. His upcoming meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin was announced by the press secretary of the head of state Dmitry Peskov.

Throughout 2019 and the first half of 2020, before the presidential elections, which triggered the start of mass protests in Belarus, Lukashenko has repeatedly stated the need to pursue a multi-vector policy and build an independent country. He regularly complained about the “imperial manners” of Russia, criticizing the integration project within the framework of the Union State.
