Lukashenko: Belarus, despite everything, retains invaluable experience of contacts with Germany
President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has congratulated the people of the Federal Republic of Germany on the national holiday - German Unity Day. BelTA was informed about this by the press service of the Belarusian leader.
"Belarusians know very well the true meaning of this concept. For almost two decades, our people were divided by artificial borders, which did not contribute to normal relations, the development of the country and did not give any prospects," the congratulation reads. - Then the Second World War caused even more damage, which took every third inhabitant. Neither Belarusians nor Germans should forget these terrible facts."
The Head of State stressed: "We often hear that it is impossible to make adjustments to the course of history. But we are not just witnessing modern events, but we have an influence on them and can change the negative scenario of development."
Alexander Lukashenko drew attention to the fact that the modern generation of Belarusians and Germans have a lot in common and understand each other much better than a hundred years ago. "We have accumulated invaluable experience in contacts in a wide variety of industries. Minsk carefully preserves them no matter what. The doors of our house are always open for guests from Germany and other countries, for all people of good will who come to us with a pure heart and wish us well," the Belarusian leader noted. - I believe that very soon harmony and mutual understanding will be added to the value of unity, which was so difficult for us. Welcome to Belarus!"
