Alyaksandr Lukashenka becomes publicist
The Belarusian leader has published his opinion about the integration article written by Russian PM Vladimir Putin in the newspaper “Izvestiya”.
The head of the Russian government published an article about a new Eurasian integration project in this edition on October 4. He thinks that the Customs Union and the Single Economic Area may become a basis of the Eurasian Union that will connect Asia-Pacific and Europe in the future.
Lukashenka thinks that the article is a real idea and praises the strategy. In his opinion, “only stupid people can accuse the article and its author of pre-election dissimulation”. The Belarusian leader also notes that he has always considered the collapse of the Soviet Union to be a serious mistake. However, the integration processes on the post-Soviet territory do not mean that Belarus will lose its independence.
