Lukashenka: Take my money if you find it

Visiting the state-owned apparel factory Skuno in Minsk on Friday, Belarus president Alexander Lukashenka offered those who could find his money to take it.

"As for Lukashenka's billions, I can only say once again: take them. Cyprus took 60%, as for the rest - take it if you find it. There is an opportunity... Take it not only from Lukashenka but also from his family and close relatives," interfax.by quotes the Belarus president as saying.

Lukashenka is convinced that the financial crisis in Cyprus will not affect the Belarusian economy. There is no Belarusian money in Cyprus, while Belarusian banks have virtually no connections with that country.
