MP: Warsaw pursuing anti-people policy, but, as our President said, we will explain everything to the Poles
Last week, after visiting the Belarusian State University, the President of Belarus met with journalists and answered a number of burning questions about developments in the near abroad. His messages again caused a wide resonance in the expert community. Thus, Deputy Chairman of the Standing Committee on Education, Science, Culture and Social Development of the Council of the Republic, Rector of the Academy of Postgraduate Education Oleg Dyachenko drew attention to Aleksandr Lukashenko’s words about speculating on the Belarusian issue.
“Our President correctly said that we are explaining everything to the Poles and will continue doing it,” Oleg Dyachenko underlined. “We will speak the truth, which the Poles themselves see. Almost three years have passed since the political regimes of Riga, Vilnius and Warsaw, on instructions from the outside, took a solidary unfriendly position towards Belarus, demonise our country in the eyes of the world community, created subversive anti-Belarusian political centres, are engaged in organised border provocations, and hinder the development of free international trade.”
According to the senator, the sanctions imposed by official Warsaw against Belarusians, as well as the methods of their application, are in complete contradiction with common sense, the policy of openness and good neighbourly relations, and, most importantly, with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Moreover, they grossly violate the Helsinki Final Act, signed by Poland in August 1975.
“There’s no need to look far for examples,” said Oleg Dyachenko. “Citizens of the countries of the Middle East and Central Asia continue to be discriminated against. Under the pretext of fighting illegal migration, the Polish authorities – in the spirit of the worst examples of the Cold War – built an iron fence on the border with our country, overtook military equipment and troops, while tough guys in Polish military uniforms dispassionately and cynically beat the unfortunate migrants, many of whom are sent to the EU for family reunification.”
According to the Belarusian senator, by their inhumane actions, European officials, for political reasons, destroy family ties, which are of paramount importance for Eastern people.
“Thus, the leaders of the neighbouring state are not going to take into account not only legal, but also moral, universal norms,” Oleg Dyachenko said. “Ordinary Poles are suffering as a result of the anti-people policy. Their economic situation is deteriorating, their political rights and freedoms are being restricted. The foreign policy dependence of Warsaw on Washington and Brussels is growing, the militarisation of the Polish state is taking place. A deep domestic political crisis looms on the horizon.”
