Lukashenko commented on the situation at the state border
The situation on the border is challenging, and there is plenty of work for everyone. This was stated by the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko on January 30, when approving the decision on state border protection in 2025, according to a BELTA correspondent.
"The situation on the borders is challenging, we have always said and continue to say so. There is plenty of work today not only for border guards but also for customs officers, especially at checkpoints. The queues on both sides are huge, which adds to the workload of our border guards," said Alexander Lukashenko.
The President added that he knows firsthand what checkpoints and the green border are, and how borders are guarded. "It's all not easy. Therefore, let's discuss the main aspects of state border protection, the key elements. And if we reach full mutual understanding and agreement with the proposed option by the border troops, we will approve the decision on state border protection," the Belarusian leader concluded.
