The time when it was necessary to defend our homeland in the formidable years of the Great Patriotic War. You probably know that there is a movie called Time Chose Us about wartime Minsk. Minsk. We were rebuilding our Belarus in the post-war years,” Igor Sergeyenko said.
Today the tasks are different, the speaker emphasized. “The president said at the end (of the Belarusian People’s Congress] that we must let down neither ourselves nor those people on whose shoulders we are building our state, consolidated society. The Belarusian People’s Congress proved this,” he stated.
