Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that in case of questions about the health of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, it is necessary to focus only on official reports.
Peskov made such a statement, answering journalists’ questions about whether a meeting between the presidents of Russia and Belarus is planned against the backdrop of reports of Lukashenka’s deteriorating health.
“There were no such official messages from Minsk. And here we believe that it is very important to focus on official information,” Peskov said.
On May 14, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko did not appear at the ceremony of celebrating the Day of the Flag, Emblem and Anthem of the Republic. His appeal was read out by Prime Minister Roman Golovchenko. Lukashenka has not appeared in public since May 9, when he attended the Victory Parade on Red Square in Moscow. On the same day, he was unable to attend a breakfast with Russian President Vladimir Putin and the leaders of the CIS countries in the Kremlin. After the military parade, he also did not walk along with other politicians to the Alexander Garden, but drove an electric car.
Then Peskov said that Lukashenka had to leave for Minsk to participate in the events. Peskov also declined to comment on Lukashenka’s state of health, noting that it “would be extremely incorrect.”
On May 14, Konstantin Zatulin, the first deputy head of the State Duma Committee on CIS Affairs, said that, according to his information, Lukashenka had fallen ill. MP about this declared Telegram channel “Rise”. According to the deputy, “there is nothing supernatural there, it’s not covid.”
