Lukashenko comments on attempts to disunite people, weaken Belarus

MINSK, 29 January (BelTA) – Not many people bother to think about those who benefit from attempts to disunite the Belarusian nation and weaken the country, Belarusian head of state Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he met with students on 29 January, BelTA informs.

Aleksandr Lukashenko remarked that the degree of politicization of the society had reached its maximum in 2020. According to the head of state, it is not who and where tried to rock the Belarusian boat. “The issue is why part of the society, including you, young Belarusians, fell for it. Why did we allow them to sow discord in Belarus, our common home? Not only in the country, even in our families,” the president wondered.

“We were so proud of our wisdom and intelligence, our tolerance, unity, stability. And given the circumstances, I will dare say that not many people are thinking about those who benefit from attempts to disunite the nation and weaken Belarus,” the head of state said.

According to the president, as a parent he would like to know what the young generation is thinking about, what they want in life. “For me as president it is important to realize how personal plans and dreams of yours are associated with the state interests,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.

Given the increased attention of youth to political processes in the country, the president also would like to know if the government and young people understand those interests in the same way. “I am curious if you are thinking about this topic at all,” the president added.
