Lukashenka “cries out loud” because of the boycott

Belarusian dictator crashed his critics on the oppositionists boycotting his “elections”.

‘’We even take them on their collar, pull them to the people. They are afraid to go to the people, I already told that they don’t need power. They are getting paid a little (by the West - Interfax) for bread and salt. But why would they need to come to power?”, - said Lukashenka to journalists on Friday in the Mogilev region, Interfax reports.

“Power- is when you have to be accountable to the people”, - the dictator highlighted.

Commenting the decision of a number of opposition parties to take their candidates off the elections the ruler claimed it meant that “the parties showed their real nature, showed that they are equal to nothing”.

“They will lose the dozen of people who still see them as a role model”, - Lukashenka added.

On the other hand, according to him, “it was a right decision on their part, because they don’t have adequate candidates”. “If they are not ready to compete today… Are you being shot here, or chocked or suppressed? They thought, that they would silently or loudly quit the elections and thus show that they were against the current system. But this system doesn’t create obstacles for anyone to be elected”, - claimed Lukashenka.

The dictator said, that he “was not involved into the campaign at all”. “Will we see then, what they will say about the dictator’s influence on these elections?” He said that the head of the Central Electoral Commission Lidziya Yarmoshyna and the chairman of the House of Representatives Uladzimir Andreichanka are mainly responsible for the electoral campaign. “Not once did they address me for me to do anything or go anywhere”, - he highlighted. “I don’t get involved into the electoral campaign. For me the most important is to ensure peace in the country, that no one makes trouble to anyone”, - claimed Lukashenka.

The ruler noted that “they should learn from us how to organize elections”. “We don’t cry out loud”, - he said.

According to Lukashenka, he will decide on whom he is going to vote for on the elections day on Sunday. “I will definitely vote for a person, who has life experience and did something with own hands”, - the dictator noted. Lukashenka highlighted, that the “parliament members must be experienced, must not scream out loud on squares, but to work on legislation”. “Today there are 110 people in the parliament, but they must be literate, they must develop legislation. And that is a very hard work”, - the dictator claimed.
