Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko has met with activists of Belarus' pioneer organization on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the pioneer movement, BelTA has learned.

First of all, the head of state congratulated the children, their parents and grandparents on this day. “You are still very young, but, one might say, you are at ground zero of the revival of a real pioneer organization. There is a lot of work for us to do in the coming years. Therefore, you are at the origins of it,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.

The president reminisced about his childhood. According to him, it fell on the heyday of the pioneer movement. “I even remember when they gave me the Pioneer's scarlet necktie and taught me how to tie a knot. These were the happiest years, because they were carefree,” the head of state said sharing his memories.
