Thank you, Mr Aleinik.
Today we met with President of the Republic of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko. The meeting was quite productive.
As always, we shared our analysis of the processes developing in the Union State in terms of diplomatic assistance and the actions unfolding around us, first of all, in Europe, where our and your Western neighbours have openly stated their goal of curbing our and the Union State's development. The West is trying, in every possible way, to encourage the non-systemic opposition that is working abroad against the interests of the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation.
Our position is absolutely clear. We will discuss it today in detail as relates to further steps at the meeting of the two collegiums of the Belarusian and Russian foreign ministries. We have prepared several reports.
I am sure that the agreements we will sign following today's discussion will facilitate the further implementation of the programme of our countries' coordinated foreign policy actions.
