President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko reproached Western countries in reluctance to listen to the position of Russia on the preservation of international security architecture. The text of his speeches on the regions forum quotes BelTA.
According to politics, now Moscow, and Minsk are subjected to “non-rectified economic and political press” by enemies, but they are able to fully resist this pressure. “We use this moment to strengthen economic cooperation and make our states are absolutely independent – not only from the point of view of the economy,” said Lukashenko.
He also called the Union of Russia and Belarus with the value you need to “increase and convey to future generations”. “Russia has always been, there will be a strategic partner of Belarus,” concluded the head of state.
Until the mid-2020, Lukashenko repeatedly declared the need to conduct multi-member policies and build an independent country. He regularly complied with “Imperial Packs” of Moscow, criticizing the project of integration within the framework of the Allied State.
After the start of mass protests in the country, Lukashenko softened the rhetoric and proposed to deepen economic and military integration with Moscow, but from proposals to enter into Russia or to create new supranational authorities refused. “The world has changed so much that it would be just stupid to even work in this direction,” the President of Belarus stated.
