The Minister of Defense of Belarus Viktor Khrenin said at the end of the meeting of the Security Council of the Republic of Belarus held today that the number of people’s militia in the country could reach up to 150 thousand people.
“But these are volunteers, there may be more of them,” the minister specified.
He also noted that militia structures are most important in rural areas, although they can be created, in accordance with the law discussed today, and city authorities.
Noting that the idea to create appropriate structures arose in Minsk in the course of analyzing the events in Ukraine, Khrenin stressed that this is a necessary addition to the system for ensuring the defense capability of our country.
Touching upon the issue of the tasks that are set for the new structure, the head of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Belarus singled out “protection, first of all, of one’s home, one’s property and the implementation of measures to ensure law and order together with the police.”
