The head of state said earlier that the event had been scheduled for mid April. However, it was postponed because of the pandemic. “Some issues are difficult to predict. We need a clear forecast, which is unavailable today. We need time to analyze the situation in the country and beyond its borders and only then say something to our people,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said during one of the working visits to the regions in April 2020.
