Belarus has been consistently and transparently (for the international community) taking compulsory retaliatory measures to strengthen its own security. This was stated by Chairman of the Standing Committee of the House of Representatives on International Affairs Sergei Rachkov at the XXIV meeting of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly in Vienna. Sergei Rachkov emphasised that for two years in a row Minsk has hosted an international conference on Eurasian security, demonstrating its ability to create conditions for the elaboration of principles of peaceful coexistence both in Europe and in Eurasia.
