President: We are nothing without our people, without those who work every day

5 ноября 2020
Almost 40 people received state awards and military shoulder straps from the hands of the President at the Palace of Independence.

They are agricultural workers, directors of enterprises, the military, and athletes. Only persistent creative work, stressed the President, is a source of the well-being of each family and state. The achievements of these people are a vivid confirmation of this. Expressing his gratitude to all those present, Alexander Lukashenko separately noted the contribution of the village workers, understanding how difficult it was for the peasants to work this year.

Belarus is proud of its honored coaches and athletes, scientists, agricultural workers, and lawyers. Victor Khrenin, Ivan Tertel and Anatoly Lappo received the higher military rank of lieutenant general and shoulder straps from the hands of the President. The head of state once again thanked the working people whose contribution to ensuring the well-being and independence in the country can hardly be overestimated.

As noted at the Palace of Independence today, such people, sincerely devoted to their state, family and profession, are the strength of our nation. Besides, a tour of the Palace of Independence was held for the participants of today's ceremony.
