Belarusian president says preparing republic’s citizens to his stepping down
"I want no disappointment or failure," he said in an interview for the News of the Week program on the Rossiya-1 TV channel | Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has said that he is preparing the republic’s citizens for his stepping down. 💬 "All think as follows: ’30 years is a lot, with only a few people working [as president] for 30 years’. And people have become used to him and no one else. This is wrong. I’m preparing people to it [stepping down], I want no disappointment or failure," he said in an interview for the News of the Week program on the Rossiya-1 TV channel. ● "Not long ago we adjusted the constitution [of Belarus] to changes. But we do not want changes as a revolution. I am a supporter of evolutionary, but not revolutionary changes. And we have done much to build what you now see, in recent years," the president added.
