The State Secretary of the Union State welcomed the participants of the Union State Day - a bright, especially significant holiday symbolizing the inseparable traditions of centuries-old friendship, unity of destinies, and cultural community of Belarusians and Russians. "Since 2002, the Standing Committee has been annually organizing treatment and health improvement for children from Belarus and Russia. During this time, thousands of schoolchildren of the Union State have received a unique opportunity to become participants in numerous leisure and development programs, expand their horizons of knowledge by learning more about our fraternal countries and the future prospects for the development of union integration, gain new impressions and find new reliable friends," Sergei Glazyev said in his greeting.
He recalled that in 2025, the Union State Day is dedicated to a significant date - the celebration of the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. "The peoples of Belarus and Russia are united by common spiritual values and ideals, an understanding of the importance of preserving the historical memory of heroism, courage, friendship, unity and military brotherhood of the defenders of the Fatherland. And you, the younger generation, must always remember that, by defending it, we are jointly resisting attempts to falsify the heroic military past of our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers," the State Secretary of the Union State concluded in his welcoming speech.
