Independent journalists not allowed to a parliament’s session

Today the House of Representatives of the 5th convocation will gather for the first time and will elect its leadership.

Euroradio tried to accredit their reporter Dzmitry Lukashuk for the session. However, as Mikalai Lis, the head of the information and analytical department of the House of Representatives, told, Lukashenka’s security service denied him access to the building. It is known that Aliaksandr Lukashenka will visit the session.

At the September elections 109 of the 110 parliament member seats were taken. At today’s session the leadership of the House of Representatives must be elected.
