27.06.2023

Belarusians know how to defend their land, they have been and will be able to rise up to any challenge, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said at the ceremony to present shoulder straps to senior officers on 27 June, BelTA has learned.

“Our generation has been put to the test. We have the mission to preserve peace that was achieved by millions of heroes, our parents and grandparents. This means only one thing - we must be able to combat the threat that is again looming over our land. It is coming from the West again. As you can see, history repeats itself. When talking about strength, the last thing I think about is technical capabilities. We have them. And we are well aware of this,” the head of state said.

Unity and devotion to the Fatherland are much more important, Aleksandr Lukashenko emphasized. “And our Fatherland from Brest to Vladivostok is land, freedom and our peoples. History has showed that Belarusians know how to defend their land. We have been and will be able to rise up to any challenge,” the president said.
