“You probably noticed that in my speeches (and even very official ones, in the New Year's greetings) I often talk about sovereignty and independence,” Belta Lukashenko quotes.
He noted that he said "this is from the heart."
“There is no lies, there is not some kind of my act for the sake of someone. I am truly committed to this idea, ”the president added.
Earlier, in a congratulation to compatriots on October Revolution Day, Lukashenko said that Belarus had preserved the best achievements of the Soviet era.
