Belarus builds relations on the basis of equality and mutual benefit. This was stated by the President at the ceremony of presenting credentials by the ambassadors of foreign states. Representatives of 9 countries from Asia, Latin America, and Africa arrived at the Palace of Independence. From this moment, the diplomats officially begin their mission in our country. The President drew attention to the fact that the ceremony of presenting credentials takes place on the eve of two significant dates for the Belarusian people – June 22 and July 3. We know the price of victory, we know what it means to raise a country from ruins. And today Belarus stands for a multipolar and just world, with development guarantees for all countries without exception. The West is destroying the European security system created after the Second World War. The President outlined guidelines for how we will continue to build interaction with the states whose ambassadors are starting their diplomatic mission today. There are opportunities for expanding bilateral cooperation with each country.
