The ceremony of presenting the state awards took place today at the Palace of Independence! They honor those who by their labor make our country better.

Before the start of the celebrations, a brief excursion for the guests was held. An exhibition dedicated to the Independence Day and the Year of National Unity has opened here today. The works of young artists from different regions of the country are also presented. Every corner of Belarus is special, which is noticeable in the exposition. One can feel love for the native land in every picture!

Addressing the participants in the ceremony, Alexander Lukashenko recalled what a difficult period all of us had to go through. At the same time, the leader noted the unyielding character of the Belarusians!

The President announced the completion of the anti-terrorist operation

Alexander Lukashenko, President of the Republic of Belarus:

Today we finished a large-scale anti-terrorist operation in the country. It seemed to us that they would choke us economically. The terror inside the country against people continues on a larger scale. We will talk about this in the near future. After today's end of counterintelligence measures, we will no longer make claims to German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, but to the Chancellor and some of the German leadership directly.

In a solemn atmosphere, the presentation of orders and honorary titles took place. Gratitude to the defenders of the country was expressed. The oath, officer honor and military duty are the coordinate systems for them. The President thanked those who fight on the information front and those who firmly stand guard over truth and law. Words of gratitude were received by builders, those who work in the agro-industry and the real sector, ensuring food security and economic growth. Warm wishes didn't pass the teachers. They help to learn the main life lesson: the Motherland is not sold or betrayed!
