“We see everything; we have unravelled their plans. Therefore, after reading all sorts of channels and messages you receive – forget about them. You should know that the most valuable thing for me as President is you and your children. I know what children are. I also know that children should live in a peaceful country, under a peaceful bright sky. You see that they simply want to push us into the war in Ukraine – intentionally, so that we expose our other borders. They will then deal with us quickly, we will not even have time to return from Ukraine to protect you. This is their tactic. Their strategy is to deal with Russia and simultaneously with us,” the Head of State said.

At the same time, Aleksandr Lukashenko stressed that there would be plenty of fakes and lies related to our country. “We know what they wish. However, if they get in, there will be hell to pay. The guys sitting modestly now in a back row can tell you: we are ready for this. We will fight and die for you on our land. You can be sure of that. This is the main message with which you can come home today from here, from the centre of our state. We do not wish any scandals, conflicts or war. We are peaceful people and would like to have peace around us. That is what we are doing. You see, they do not like it,” he added.

The President emphasised once again: in this difficult situation, everyone should do their thing and live a normal life, “Give birth to children and raise them. We will help you in every possible way in our peaceful and independent Belarus. Your health is the key for this.”

With this in view, Aleksandr Lukashenko expressed his admiration for the awarded mothers with many children. “I am looking at our young and most respected ladies in the country. Is it possible to guess that they are already mothers? They are slim and beautiful; they are looking into the future because they have children. That is who we need to take an example from,” the President stressed.
