Consolidating role of Belarusian Peace Fund noted

MINSK, 13 May (BelTA) – The Belarusian Peace Fund consolidates the general public for the sake of good deeds. The opinion was voiced by Deputy Head of the Belarus President Administration Igor Buzovsky before the solemn meeting held on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of the public association Belarusian Peace Fund, BelTA has learned.

Igor Buzovsky remarked that the Belarusian Peace Fund’s efforts are reflected not in words but in deeds as part of concrete projects and programs as well as in positive feedback from the general public. “We witness all kinds of large-scale events timed to Victory Day, to state holidays and events meant to preserve and propagate such notions as peace and social justice. These are the invariable values that the Republic of Belarus has painstakingly preserved and is trying to propagate,” said the Deputy Head of the Belarus President Administration.

In his words, the government will develop and support efforts of the Belarusian Peace Fund. “If state support is necessary, it will always be granted,” said Igor Buzovsky.
