MINSK, 31 July (BelTA) – Belarus is ready to take in migrants willing to work and who respect the Belarusian state and people, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he met with heads of Belarus’ diplomatic missions, BelTA has learned.
The Belarusian leader reiterated the country’s policy toward migrants seeking employment in Belarus. “This doesn’t mean anyone can come here and do whatever they please,” said Aleksandr Lukashenko. “We’re ready to welcome all who want to work, who respect our state and people, and who behave decently. Our ambassadors in their countries of origin will have the final say in this matter.”
