Video:White-red-white flag removed from Stockholm arena
Belarus national ice hockey team is taking part in 2013 World Championship in Sweden and Finland.
Members of Belarus National Memory hoisted a white-red-white flag 7 minuets before the end of Belarus-Slovenia match. The security guards attacked them and led them out. They explained their actions by the fact that the flag contradicted the safety measures. They did not say that white-red-white flags were “a political symbol’, BNM leaderAnatol Mihanvets told Euroradio.
Members of Belarus National Memory hoisted their first white-red-white flag during the match with the Czech team. The match was broadcast live by Belaus-2 and Belarusian viewers could see that flag on TV many times during the match.
Belarusians defeated Slovenians yesterday – 4:3. Andrei Skabelka’s team will play with Sweden today (at 9.15 p.m.)
