Lukashenko Criticizes Armenia's Partnership Stance at CIS Heads of State Council
During the session of the Council of Heads of State (CHS) of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) on October 13, in Bishkek, Belarus' leader Alexander Lukashenko said that a number of protracted conflicts in the CIS territory have been successfully resolved, while the rest have been outlined ways to solve.
Moreover, Lukashenko noted that Armenia does not always behave like a partner among the CIS countries. Lukashenko added that the West does not abandon attempts to shake the CIS countries in different directions, weaken and subordinate them to its interests. He called for unity and cooperation with like-minded countries, emphasizing that only strength is respected in the modern world.
"First, Georgia left our association; de facto, Ukraine is not with us. There are big questions about Moldova. Unfortunately, Armenia does not always behave partner-like," Lukashenko stated. "We - heads of state - must fulfill the will of our voters. And at least fulfill and solve the tasks we promised," the republic's head said.
