Belarus, China review priorities in law enforcement cooperation
A grand Forum of Patriotic Forces, dedicated to National Unity Day and organized by the Headquarters of Patriotic Forces, was held at the capital's Palace of Sports. Delegations from all regions of the country arrived, including 150 people from Vitebsk region, led by the Deputy Chairman of the Regional Executive Committee Vyacheslav Durnov: representatives of government bodies, political parties, public organizations, enterprises from various fields of activity, and youth.
The dialogue focused on what lies at the core of unity: the heroic history of our country, its challenging periods, the courage, resilience, and wisdom of the Belarusian people, national traditions, and the genetic code. Simple and honest discussions about complex matters.
Prominent politicians, opinion leaders, and public figures acted as speakers. Mikhail Rusy, Honored Worker of Agriculture of the Republic of Belarus, Chairman of the Standing Commission of the Council of the Republic for Legislation and State Building, recalled the symbolism of holding the holiday in the Minsk Palace of Sports. It was the delegates of the first All-Belarusian People's Congress in October 1996 who, "with bated breath and a feeling of deepest hope and confidence," listened to the head of state's keynote address. It was also here that they unanimously supported the new format of the presidency, where the President of the country is the head of state, the guarantor of the Constitution and human rights.
