Lukashenko compared elections in Belarus and the West
Unlike the West, Belarus holds democratic, not pseudo-democratic, elections. This was stated by the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko while receiving a report from Prosecutor General Andrei Shved, a BELTA correspondent reports.
"The elections have passed. Thank you very much to the people for supporting us. As a body that upholds the law, were there any significant violations during the elections from your point of view? What do we still need to work on?" Alexander Lukashenko asked.
"We must indeed hold democratic elections, not pseudo-democratic ones, as is sometimes the case in the West: they lecture us, but their own elections are not always democratic and not everywhere, and in general, perhaps, they don't hold them at all. We must do this very democratically: this is the time when the people decide everything," the President emphasized. "Therefore, from this point of view, were there any violations, did the prosecutors notice anything that we need to work on?"
