Lukashenka's press-center: no meetings with Putin were planned


Head of Alyaksandr Lukashenka's press-center Pavel Lyohki has informed this to BelaPAN.

"There have been two bilateral meetings, with President of Ukraine and Turkmenistan, - says Lyohki. - The major part of contacts of all the Presidents was behind the doors, with no press-secretaries, so I cannot tell you whom else the President talked to".

On December 5, Alyaksandr Lukashenka participated in the CIS members states leaders' session in Ashkhabad. The press-center of Kremlin informed about bilateral meetings of Vladimir Putin with President of Ukraine Victor Yanukovich, President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev and President of Armenia Serge Sargasyan.

Some political scientists do not exclude that Putin might have taken offence at his Belarusian colleague for his recent statements on the Russian leader's health.
