29 января 2021
About sovereignty, foreign interference, politicization of public life and the participation of students in it, changes to the main law and even speculation about a "secret" inauguration.

President answered the questions of the students of the Belarusian State University! The meeting lasted more than 3 hours. They were waiting for Alexander Lukashenko at the main university of the country. This is an opportunity for an open and conversation with the head of state. It is also relevant against the background of the politicization of public life. The students did not stand aside. The President noted: you can express different opinions, but the main thing is within the framework of the law! Many benefit from separating the nation and weakening the country. In the post-election time, a variety of technologies were used. Many threats were prevented! In particular, the President spoke about the upcoming provocations during the inauguration.

The President stressed: young people are the most advanced and progressive part of society. It is important to talk about the country's development with them! Over the past year, this need has become more acute: not everyone was able to understand the intricacies of political reality! Alexander Lukashenko is sure: Belarus has managed to establish itself in the international arena as a strong and self-sufficient state. But we must not allow foreign politicians to determine the future of the country! The President has noted that it is important for him to compare positions with the current generation, find out what worries students today and answer all questions!

During the meeting, they talked about youth organizations, in particular, about the Belarusian Republican Youth Union. It is important to clearly define priorities in its work, as well as to give additional powers. Also, the students proposed to the President the idea of   a new experiment. That is to create a model of public-private partnership in financing universities when the state partly sponsors it, and funds filled by private companies are used to help. Their money goes to students' research and development. Alexander Lukashenko supported the idea: it can be tested at Yanka Kupala University in Grodno. The President was also asked about the opposition to new technologies in social networks and messengers.

The participants of the meeting even suggested to the President to establish a day of Belarusian Students. And the date was chosen - February 25. It is not accidental: on that day a state university was created in Minsk! The idea also found support. Alexander Lukashenko promised to implement it by summer!
