“We are keen to build equal, mutually beneficial and respectful relations with all countries around the world. Good-neighborly relations and mutual assistance are of special importance for us. That is why we strive for peaceful settlement of the crisis in the brotherly Ukraine and in other hot spots on the planet,” the Belarusian head of state stressed.

According to Alexander Lukashenko, within international organizations, Belarus will continue to be actively engaged in collective efforts to meet global threats and challenges. These organizations, in his words, have accumulated invaluable expertise and potential.

The President underlined that Belarus can offer to the international community its experience in tackling a number of problems. For example, the country can do that while addressing such goals as overcoming the consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster or eliminating human trafficking.

“Belarus will always support every effort and initiative aimed at strengthening the system of international law. This is our key foreign policy priority,” the Belarusian head of state said.

According to the President of Belarus, peace and security on the globe, however, cannot be safeguarded by the means of international law alone. “What is also needed is to create, at the national level, worthy conditions of life for every individual. I am deeply convinced that only a strong state can adequately cope with this task,” he added.
