Lukashenko: I do everything so that we will not have to take up arms
At a solemn gathering to mark the 30th anniversary of the President's Security Service on 25 October Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said that he is doing everything he can to prevent situations when Belarusians will have to take up arms, BelTA has learned.
“We are living through difficult times. I am doing everything to ensure that we will not have to take up arms and shoot. Only for training purposes. But if things get tough, you should know that we will take the lead. You will be at the vanguard, including the president. Such is our life. But let's do everything to prevent such situations,” the Belarusian leader said.
