Lukashenko about detained citizens of the Russian Federation: they were ordered - they went

Chairman of the State Security Committee of Belarus Valery Vakulchik and Chairman of the Investigative Committee of the Republic Ivan Noskevich reported to President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko on the situation with detained citizens of the Russian Federation. This was reported on August 1 by BelTA. Lukashenko listened to the report of Vakulchik and Noskevich, and noted that many of the facts reported to him in writing are interesting. I see our older brothers are also silent. They no longer shout that they sent these guys to Istanbul. There was no Istanbul and could not be, as it turned out to be. Clearly, this group had different goals. And the task of the investigation to find out these goals, he noted. The head of the republic asked his rapporteurs to carefully treat the detainees, adding that they were not guilty enough to take some tough measures against them. These are soldiers. They were ordered to go. It is necessary to deal with those who ordered them, who sent them here, Lukashenko emphasized. The head of Belarus also praised the speakers for finding out that thirty-three previously detained citizens of the Russian Federation are allegedly only the first group of one hundred eighty or two hundred people, the transfer of which was allegedly planned to Belarus. And moreover, when I say this (I read the report), these are accurate data today. And the attempt there now to hide the tail in Russia and say that almost they agreed with us on the arrival of this group, this is complete nonsense, the head of the republic insists. According to Lukashenko, the relevant departments of the two countries always interact regardless of any events involving the military personnel of the Russian Federation (former, active, future) were held in Belarus. He also added that in Belarus only the president can give permission to visit the republic by military personnel (with or without equipment). No one gave any permits. Moreover, today we have serious suspicions about the goals that the group set for itself, Alexander Lukashenko stressed. According to Lukashenko, politics cannot be built on lies and the issue cannot be resolved by shouting each other in the media. In this regard, he noted that if one of the Russians has a desire to get additional information, then we are always open, we do not hide anything, but we need the truth. According to the head of the Belarusian state, the investigation in this case is conducted by the Investigative Committee of Belarus, the state security committee and the police provide operational support. Connect people, if you need to, operatives. Work carefully. But the truth should be presented to society, Lukashenko summed up, addressing the speakers.
