KYIV – Ukraine is calling on the Republic of Belarus to be as tolerant as possible, hold open dialogue and reject violence, because this is the approach that will ensure a way out of the difficult crisis situation, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on August 10.
“We call on our neighbors to be as tolerant as possible and reject street violence. We call for the most open, albeit complex, dialogue, because only a broad dialogue will allow the citizens of the Republic of Belarus to find a way out of the difficult crisis situation and honestly discuss further steps and formats of public interaction. Only mutual understanding between all parties can preserve the country’s independence and ensure its further movement towards freedom and democracy,” Mr. Zelenskyy said.
