 Lukashenko rules out compromises on sovereignty, security
We have never made compromises in matters of sovereignty and security in our foreign and domestic policy. And we never will. The Belarusian nation was divided and its borders were repeatedly redrawn and this experience has taught us to value today's unity and territorial integrity, the Belarusian leader said.
