“You stand guard over the borders of the Motherland, ready at any moment to be the first to meet any threat. This is the choice of strong-spirited and brave warriors - true patriots,” the message of greetings reads. “Each of you continues the glorious path of heroes of border guards who gave a decisive response to fascist invaders during the Great Patriotic War, heroes who performed feats in peacetime.”
The border is now turbulent and defense of the Fatherland in the period of global geopolitical instability requires maximum focus on threats and measures to ensure security, the head of state said. “We are building new border lines fitted with modern technical means of protection, equipping the border service with the latest weapons and military equipment, doing everything to keep a peaceful sky over our native Belarus,” the president stressed. “I am absolutely convinced that the peaceful sleep of our citizens is guarded by professionals of the highest level, faithful to their duty and devoted to their country.”
Aleksandr Lukashenko thanked veterans, active servicemen and civilian personnel for their service and wished them and their loved ones strong health, happiness and prosperity.
