Coronavirus diplomacy

Lukashenko is preparing for the parade and requires a reduction in gas prices

In Belarus, no one died and will not die. Therefore, quarantine is not needed, but we need a parade, hockey and football. No one will die during the pandemic - Alexander Lukashenko firmly promised this.

“People are afraid. Therefore, I want to tell them the following: not a single person from coronavirus died in our country. Not one! They died from a bouquet of chronic diseases that they had. WHO specialists - they saw it. This is cardiovascular deficiency, respiratory pulmonary failure in the kit and diabetes mellitus. And then there are still such diagnoses that I can’t even read. And the coronavirus is added, ” - so he comforted Belarusians on April 13 during a meeting with officials. And he added in case there were any doubters in the country:

“Even if they don’t worry. No one will die from coronavirus in our country. I publicly declare this.

This is my firm conviction based on the analysis of not only past years. We already have the experience of this year. ”

After that, the lazy one did not remember that, strictly speaking, not a single person in the world also died from fascism: there were either injuries, or illness, or hunger, or suffocating gas.

Alexander Lukashenko has long adopted this casuist technique. For example, after the first death from the coronavirus - then the actor of the Vitebsk regional theater Viktor Dashkevich - Lukashenko died for a long time that the deceased was 75 years old, and at this age there was no need to walk along the streets, not to mention to work. Commenting on the death of a military pensioner from Vitebsk Vladimir Sidorov, he said:

“How can you live with 135 kilograms of weight? The heart almost does not work, it does not work, it hurts, it hurts. ”

And not a word of compassion for families. Despite the fact that the Belarusian Ministry of Health for this day for some reason keeps secret the geography of the spread of the virus, not calling the cities where people died, and referring to a medical secret, Lukashenko willingly talks about the age, weight and chronic diseases of the dead. Oh yes, no one died in our country and will not die from coronavirus. They will die from something else. From pneumonia mainly. And let them die from the virus somewhere in Italy-it’s not so offensive there.

Last week, a WHO mission visited Minsk. Experts warned that we should prepare for a deterioration in the situation, transfer all educational institutions into a distance form of training and cancel all sports, cultural and entertainment events. But the country continues in the country, and the military is preparing for the parade. Near the stele on the prospectus of the winners in Minsk, the stands are built, and on the night of Monday on Tuesday, another rehearsal was held. Yes, and for Easter Alexander Lukashenko for some reason calls people to temples:

“Once again, I emphasize: we do not close the road to the temple. This is my firm requirement. We do not forbid anyone.

We brought this to the leadership of all churches, faiths, including the Orthodox Church. He who wants to pray, goes to the temple. I will be in the church. "

Sounds like in the Middle Ages. However, the more infected ones, the greater the volume of help can be asked from the world. While the European Union is ready to allocate 60 million euros to fight with coronavirus. And after Easter and the parade, which will inevitably follow the growth of the number of infected ones - who knows, maybe more and more unfastened?

Yes, and the IMF, which so far refuses Belarus, can change the opinion. Another reason for the parade, the consecration of eggs and football can only be ordinary stupidity, without any politics.

True, the Council of Ministers adopted at the end of last week a decision on the self-isolation of the infected Covid-19 and the contacts of the first and second levels. The bottom line is that the “official of the state body (organization)” must give the patient or contactor the requirement of self -isolation, and he, accordingly, sign the paper that he is warned of administrative and criminal liability, up to imprisonment, for violation of the regime. Who these officials with authority are not specified.

That is, the scheme is simple: go to work, football, a parade, to the church, get infected on your health, but then you will have a state.

They themselves are to blame for everything.

And of course, except for the Belarusian people, Russia is to blame for everything. On April 13, Alexander Lukashenko recalled the Russian media, which “give such ugly information” - about calls to be treated with a tractor and vodka. And then he demanded: “If you want to help, make us a world price for natural gas. Today in Europe natural gas Russia sells $ 80, not higher than 90 per thousand cubic meters. And we pay $ 127. Where is such a price today? You want to help, help. No money, we ask anything. Why tear us skin? But no one will tell about this in Russia. This truth is not needed there. Guess three times to whom. Therefore, I repeat once again: you do not touch us! It all ends, then we will see who is right and who is not. ”

In the meantime, you guess, Belarus has already entered the leadership leaders: 273 infected with a million. The global indicator is 238 per million, in Russia - 108, in Ukraine - 63. Of course, this is to some extent “average temperature in the hospital”, but still not a reason for the parade.
