Lukashenko: people’s concerns are very important to me
During today’s meeting with the head and co-ordinators of the initiative group to collect signatures in support of the incumbent Head of State for nomination as a Presidential candidate, Belarus’ President Aleksandr Lukashenko asked to inform him about the problems that citizens are concerned about
“The most important thing is that you communicate with people while collecting signatures. I would really ask you to have all this data concentrated and to inform me (in case we are elected), so that I know what people are talking about, what we need to pay attention to. It’s a good sociological cross-section; it can’t get any better than that. Just write me honestly and shortly about what good things people say and the rest about people’s demands. What is wrong from their point of view? The problems that people are concerned about are very important to me. And we will, of course, work in this direction and correct the shortcomings that people notice,” Aleksandr Lukashenko noted.
The Head of State pointed out that the collection of signatures would last until December 6th. In this regard, the Belarusian leader noted that it would probably be wrong to stop collecting signatures in support of the incumbent President, ‘because people will reproach us’, “The deadline has been announced, that’s why we have to be present until December 6th so that people can come and sign.”
