Among those detained in Belarus there are people “with American passports, married to American women working in the State Department”, said President of the Republic Alexander Lukashenko at a meeting on ensuring the security of the election campaign, RIA Novosti reports.
According to the press service of the country’s leader, “quite a few people have already been detained in Belarus who – and this has already been proven – set themselves the goal of destabilizing the situation”. The president also said that the Belarusian authorities “know the names, surnames, addresses, passwords, attendance”.
“Sometimes it comes to miracles. The media are alarming us that Americans and NATO members want to seize us here. Some people were detained with American passports, married to American women working in the State Department”, – Lukashenko said.
Earlier radio Sputnik reported that the President of Belarus urged not to frighten him with the Americans and NATO.
