Lukashenko addresses concerns about Belarus' ‘takeover' by Russia

MOSCOW, 9 September (BelTA) – After negotiations with President of Russia Vladimir Putin in Moscow on 9 September Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko made a few comments about leaks that claim Belarus will be merged with Russia, BelTA has learned.

Aleksandr Lukashenko said: “The president of Russia delicately did not mention various speculations about mergers and takeovers and so on. I should say that the president of Russia and I did not succumb to this disease. If someone did, we can fix them.”

At the same time Aleksandr Lukashenko noted that the leadership of both countries will take steps purely in the interests of the nations. If Belarus and Russia need tighter relations, it will be done right away as soon as citizens request it, he stated.
