MINSK, 17 August (BelTA) – Any development is impossible without lasting peace and the resolution of global contradictions. Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko made the statement in his videoconference speech during the third summit Voice of the Global South, BelTA has learned.
Aleksandr Lukashenko said: “Today many regions are being shaken by wars and conflicts. The arms race is gaining unprecedented pace to accommodate transnational corporations. But without lasting peace and the resolution of global contradictions any development is impossible.”
He reminded that this is why Belarus has repeatedly put forward peace initiatives and has undertaken to host negotiations on resolving conflicts. “We will continue this work unswervingly,” the Belarus president assured.
