MINSK, 7 November (BelTA) – Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko extended October Revolution greetings to Belarusians, BelTA learned from the press service of the Belarusian president.

"More than a hundred years have passed since the events of the Great October Revolution, but its ideals are still relevant and important.

Having overcome numerous trials in the difficult 20th century, having realized the potential of creativity and creation, Belarusians have taken a worthy place in the large family of peoples of the world."

The head of state expressed confidence that by knowing their past, protecting the historical truth, respecting and multiplying the achievements of previous generations, Belarusians are creating a peaceful future for their children and grandchildren.

"Let sincere love for the Motherland give you strength and energy, inspire you to new achievements in the name of your beloved Belarus. From the bottom of my heart, I wish you good health, optimism and prosperity," Aleksandr Lukashenko added.
