This holiday, the President highlighted, attracts all citizens of the country “to a significant date, which has become the most important milestone in the history of the Belarusian nation, which, after going through pains and trials, obtained the status of State, sovereignty and global recognition. .”
The events of September 17, 1939, the Belarusian leader stated, laid “a solid foundation for the achievements and successes of modern Belarus and predetermined its future path of development.” The unity of the people of this country of ten million inhabitants, he noted, is based on “loyalty to the memory of their ancestors, the rich cultural heritage, perseverance and hard work.”
Belarusians, according to Lukashenko, in recent years “have learned to be together not only in the struggle, but also in creation, in their aspirations and in achieving goals.” He called it the common task of his compatriots “to increase the potential and glory of their homeland through dialogue and mutual understanding, to preserve its international identity and authority.”
Addressing the citizens of the country, the President of Belarus wished everyone good health, happiness and prosperity. “May peace and harmony reign in every family, and may unity and patriotism always be reliable support for the strengthening of the Homeland,” says the congratulatory message.
