The President of the Republic of Belarus
Alexander Lukashenko

"For Belarus, a deep productive integration with the closest neighbors has been, is and will always be a natural path of the development. Two referendums—with an absolute majority—gave the authorities a clear mandate for integration. 

The best practices of integration within the Union State allow for their reasonable and confident application in a wider multilateral format. It is important for the Union State, Customs Union and Single Economic Space to enrich and complement one another. 

Today we are coming to the implementation of the decisions conventionally called momentous. Our determination to enhance integration is not accidental. It's a manifest coming from life."
