"We are all time in touch with you. As if we had expected the times would be hard. I have repeatedly told you over the phone that the Russian Federation and Belarus even more so have always been under sanctions pressure. They are now more extensive, but we have already used to these swinish tricks of the West,” the Belarusian leader stressed.

“I am calling these swinish tricks since they all are illegitimate – as they like to say; they are illegal and violate all international agreements and treaties. Therefore, I say it again: these are swinish tricks, from my point of view. I have had enough of it already. And you are fed up with it as well," the President said.
