Alyaksandr Lukashenka made some loud statements on the so called parliamentary election appointing of personnel in law enforcement bodies.
The Belarusian ruler said that “our western partners have already determined this election as a main figure of merit, a litmus test in the relations of Belarus with the US and the West.” “I again stress our principal position: we hold this “election” for ourselves, for the Belarusian people, for our country. It will be absolutely fair,” Lukashenka said.
According to him, “all minister present here, especially officers of militia, State Secretariat of the Security Council, minister, will be involved in this process directly. Militia must provide public security, the State Secretariat must coordinate actions of law enforcement bodies.”
Alyaksandr Lukashenka said “the US and the EU don’t make steps towards the willingness of Belarus to normalise the relations with the West.”
“In response to a sincere wish of Belarus to normalise the relations with the West and the United States, to our concrete steps, nor European Union neither US don’t hurry to take adequate measures,” Luakshenka said.
“There are no positive concrete steps in this direction. It makes certain forces step up their attempts of destabilising the situation in our state,” he said.
