"My Wife Made Motherland’s Historical Flag And We Will Be On Square"

To go or to stay at home on March 25? Now everyone should answer this question on his/her own.

“As for me, I chose history as the basis for decision-making. The millennial history of my people was hushed up, distorted, or even replaced by an utter falsehood. The only thing that could not be silenced – people in the GDL and before it have always been creators.

That was the cause of all disasters: people were exterminated, most craftsmen were forcibly taken to other countries, achievements were exported or destroyed. But the nation was reborn! And it happened because the nation consisted of people of dignity. People did not let the Tatar-Mongol yoke come to our lands, there was no serfdom, the GDL statutes established collegiality and that has always been the engine of progress.

But for more than twenty years the people have been turned into cattle, and those in power have been substituting the God. They tell to the people who have always been distinguished by diligence: "We need to force you to work!" At the same time they are not smart enough to create decent conditions for work. My profession is machine-tool construction, the elite of machine building. I can tell you for sure, our specialists can do everything. But such things as guessing the direction of the progress and winning the market should be the task of those in the power, and they are below any criticism in our country. So who should be forced to work or changed?

This is the decision we must take on March 25. A rally can be beheaded before the start. At all times, all nations relied on the opinion of elders in such situations. Me and my wife are both 70-year-old, my wife made the historical flag of the Motherland, and we will be on the Square. I urge everyone who is over 60 to come to the Square. It's time for us to return for the hardest times have come,” – the pensioner informed the website of the Belarusian National Congress bnknews.org.
