“I stopped it right away. We were also ready to demolish monuments, carry out decommunization, lustration - I stopped this. And we benefited from this. Today, everyone began to return to what they are criticizing: now, the monuments were demolished. We didn’t demolish anyone, saved them, ”Belta quotes Lukashenko.

According to him, the country has not abandoned its historical past and continues to celebrate the holiday on November 7.

According to him, the goals of the 1917 revolution were noble.

“You probably do not study this already, but as a historian I studied deeply, good goals: something for the people, something for the peasants. Hang villains and oligarchs to the wall - that’s all there was, but there were a lot of good things, ”said the President.

Lukashenko also said that he intends to cut through a window to Europe.
