Lukashenko: Transformations in Belarus are not about dramatic change in priorities

Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko mentioned the transformations taking place in Belarus as he received credentials from foreign ambassadors, BelTA has learned.

“The start of your diplomatic service here coincides with important transformations in Belarus. We are not talking about a dramatic and comprehensive change of priorities. This is primarily a domestic affair. The time is ripe for change needed to maintain momentum in social development and to adjust the domestic and foreign policy in the country,” the head of state said.

Aleksandr Lukashenko noted that 2021 is the Year of People's Unity in Belarus. The goals of this campaign are to further consolidate the society, strengthen its patriotic foundations, and unite the multi-ethnic Belarusian people based on the ideas of sovereignty and independence.
