PRESIDENT: for Belarusians, the truth and memory of the war are stronger than time
For Belarusians, the truth and memory of the war are stronger than time and have no borders. Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko stated this at a ceremony dedicated to Victory Day.
"There are many bright pages in our history that we rightly take pride in. Not all of them have retained their significance to this day. Many, having lost their former meanings, have simply been forgotten. However, there are dates and events that carry the understanding of essence and the truth of life. They are beyond the control of time and circumstances, are passed down through generations with mother's milk, protect from mistakes, and help build the future. For Belarusians, the victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War became such an event," Alexander Lukashenko emphasized.
The President noted that it is precisely for this reason that the updated Constitution enshrined the thesis that "the state ensures the preservation of historical truth and memory of the heroic feat of the Belarusian people during the Great Patriotic War."

"For us, Belarusians, the truth and memory of the war are stronger than time and have no borders," the head of state stated. "We remember our anti-fascist friends, the heroes of the 'Normandy - Niemen' regiment, the participants of the meeting on the Elbe, and other examples of joint struggle against the enemy. This is a matter of our common pride with all those who stood against fascism together with us and who are still proud of it."
