“The Marathon of Unity has become a true anthem, an anthem to a sovereign country and its history, an anthem to all the achievements of our independence. You, who are standing on this stage, and those who are not here today, but we have seen them in the cities of our country, are really great. Thank you so much!” the Head of State emphasised.

The President frankly admitted that he had not seen anything like what he saw today at Minsk Arena during the years of Belarus’ independence,

“You have shown everyone that we can create on a global level. You have shown all the post-Soviet republics, which makes me happy, in what direction to move and develop. Maybe it was a little boring for someone in some performances. But you have to understand that everyone gathered on this stage, from young children to experienced grey-haired artists. It’s not easy to get everyone together and organise. But you did it. Thank you! It really was an anthem to the people who understand what happiness it is to live and work on their land, to feel that you are not alone. Behind you is Belarus. Our dear, beloved Belarus! Our Belarus! Behind are millions of like-minded patriots, those who confidently say: ‘I am proud of my country! And I know for sure that it has a worthy future, which we will build together! We will build it. There is no other way. We will build it in peace and creation!’”
