Belarus' MFA concerned over plans of Polish nationalists to stage far-right march in Hajnowka

22 февраля 2018

The MFA shares the concerns of our MPs in connection with the plans of Polish nationalists to stage another far-right march in the town of Hajnowka. One of the figures that they want to pay homage to is the gang ringleader Romuald Rajs nicknamed Bury. He is a war criminal, responsible for burning down dozens of Belarusian villages together with their inhabitants, killing or maiming hundreds of civilians, among them children, women and the elderly. They were killed or maimed just because they were ethnic Belarusians of Orthodox Christian faith.
