Bilateral cooperation was high on the agenda of a meeting between Belarusian Minister of Internal Affairs Ivan Kubrakov and a delegation of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam headed by Minister of Public Security To Lam.
The bill was submitted to the House of Representatives by Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko on 3 October. The bill “On amnesty in connection with the Day of People's Unity” was presented at the Oval Hall by Minister of Internal Affairs Ivan Kubrakov.
"Do these people deserve to remain the citizens of Belarus if they fled from their native country and severed ties with it? In fact, many MPs and representatives of the general public suggested stripping people of their citizenship if they fled and are harming the country, if their actions constitute a crime,” the president said.
Many representatives of the self-exiled opposition would like to return to Belarus and repent, but they are afraid to do it, Belarusian Minister of Internal Affairs Ivan Kubrakov told the STV TV channel.
