In the wake of the massive rigging of the 2020 presidential election lukashenko is not allowed into most countries of the world. That's why he has to travel to remote Russian regions and meet with Putin officials The regime's propagandists go out of their way to portray the hospitality of their hosts. But if the dictator does manage to visit any of the states, the regime's propagandists go out of their way to describe the hospitality of the host.
There are colorful video clips of officials and ordinary residents supposedly marveling at the "our Batska.".
However, the hospitality "foreign partners" not at all unselfishly, as Lukashenko takes expensive gifts on every foreign visit.
As BELPOL found out, they are not paid for by commercial sponsors, but from the state budgeti.e. at the expense of the Belarusan people.
Moreover, the transfer of money to pay for very inexpensive "presents", "self-appointed" Authorizes in person in writing.
Along with "cheeses and sausages"he especially likes to give tractors, for example:
- to russian dictator putin on his 70th birthday - october 2022, BELARUS-1523.3 tractor in the order of 50,000 U.S. dollars;
- President of Zimbabwe Emmerson Mnangagwa - January 2023, BELARUS-92S tractor worth about $30,000;
- President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev - May 2024, harvesting machine MU-320M and tractor BELARUS-1222.3 with a total value in excess of 50,000 U.S. dollars;
- President of Mongolia Ukhnaagiin Khurelsukh - June 2024, BELARUS-82.3 and BELARUS-2122.3 tractors in common. worth more than $90,000..
And why the goat needs an accordion (I mean a tractor for Putin.) you ask? To be honest, we don't know exactly. Maybe such a gift is connected with the eternal complex "state farm directors" from Lukashenko, and maybe - the Russian ruler once again felt the urge "extreme."he was driving, wasn't he? "Lada Kalina" и "Kamaz.".
But the situation with the gift of a tractor to President of Zimbabwe Emmerson Mnangagwa is quite different. After all, according to the official BelTA report, this tractor is intended for use in the on the private farm of a Zimbabwean man. { "head".. Such "gifts." The Belarusian legislation treats officials as "bribe".but the Lukashists "sometimes it's not about the law.".
Recall that Emmerson Mnangagwa presented Lukashenko with a gift as a reciprocal gesture. stuffed African lion.
These products are not very expensive on the African continent, that is, the Belarusian usurper again "screwed.". In addition, we can guess trolling against Lukashenko, as follows Every lion, especially an old one, will be skinned sooner or later.
Bottom line, the dictator is once again, for his own selfish purposes, handing out bribes left and right.which has a negative impact on the state treasury, but not on the personal pockets of the Lukashenko clan..
And then one of his lines comes to mind:
Remember: any talk that I or my children enjoy something - benefits from the state, for the state budget, or I am roofing someone and helping someone, and they give me something somewhere or are ready to give me something, or my money is somewhere in Arab countries, or somewhere else - is nonsense! Today it is impossible to hide it.
We will continue our work and find everything that was stolen! Every last penny!
Zhyve Belarus!
