The head of state noted that propaganda is part and parcel of mass media and this should neither be denied nor feared. “I don't know why this word was misinterpreted and defiled. Propaganda has always been and will be there. But we need to propagate the best. We have enough of it,” the head of state said.
“I don't understand why you are so concerned about this. Propaganda has always been and will be. We just need to propagate not fake news and various rubbish as you correctly define it,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said addressing Chairman of the Belteleradiocompany Ivan Eismont. “You see, we are in a unique situation: I don't want to offend other countries, but we are the only civilized country that looks decent,” Aleksandr Lukashenko emphasized.
According to him, the state-run media in Belarus convey the truth without embellishing information. “We have enough newsworthy events and facts to present honestly and reliably to the entire global community, not only to our public. Let them watch and envy,” the president said.
