“Election day is nearing its logical conclusion. As early as 18:00, 79% of voters took part in the elections. Of course, this is a very large figure for 18 hours. Many regions have already crossed the 80% line - in fact, all regions, except for Minsk and the city of Minsk, ”TASS quotes Yermoshina.

Earlier, the presidential elections in Belarus were declared valid after more than half of the registered voters took part in the voting.

In addition to Alexander Lukashenko, Andrei Dmitriev, Anna Kanopatskaya, Svetlana Tikhanovskaya and Sergei Cherechen are registered as presidential candidates.
