MINSK, 10 April (BelTA) - Igor Sergeyenko, Chairman of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of Belarus, took part in the official inauguration ceremony of the President of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar, BelTA learned from the press service of the House of Representatives.

President-elect Min Aung Hlaing, in the presence of members of both houses of parliament (the Union Assembly), Supreme Court judges, other officials, and foreign guests, recited the oath of office, pledging to act in the interests of the people and uphold the country’s Constitution.
