Lukashenko sends Independence Day greetings to Poland
President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko, on behalf of the Belarusian people and himself personally, congratulated the people of Poland on Independence Day. BELTA was informed about this by the press service of the Belarusian leader.
"Despite various difficulties, fate has decreed that our peoples should live side by side, strengthen cooperation and friendship, common Christian and cultural heritage, and broad ties in various fields. Today's geopolitical and regional upheavals, whose victims are ordinary people, once again remind us of the high price of peace and confirm the indispensability of maintaining mutually respectful and good-neighborly relations," the congratulatory message reads.
The Head of State noted that this is precisely why Belarus is doing everything possible to simplify travel, create additional opportunities for recreation, visiting relatives and friends, and establishing useful economic ties.
"Step by step, as more and more Poles come to our country under the visa-free regime, people's diplomacy is strengthening, and the need to return to normal interstate relations is growing. I believe that this natural need of both societies will soon be realized. Minsk is ready to continue working in this direction," Alexander Lukashenko emphasized.
The President wished all residents of neighboring Poland good health, well-being, happiness, and invited them to hospitable Belarus.
