Lets continue working in this direction. Yet we must not allow any pressure on us”. Speaking about relations with Russia, Alexander Lukashenko said: “Nobody can substitute this country for us today. Belarus will not act to the detriment of brotherly Russia”. Speaking about cooperation with the West, the President remarked: “We border on the West and want no clashes — either political or diplomatic ones.
