We Know You Have Not Only Shaved Your Beard But Have Also Been Slightly Ill: Lukashenko to Pashinyan

During a speech at the meeting of the Eurasian Economic Union Supreme Council (EAEU) in Saint Petersburg, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko expressed discontent regarding the physical absence of some participants at the meeting.

"Well, as president, I would ask that if our observers are interested in our unity, I would request that they attend the meetings, rather than tell us through television how they will cooperate with us. Nikol Vovaevich, this does not apply to you. We know you have not only shaved your beard but have also been slightly ill, so we perceive you as our union's new, young, at least outwardly, member," stated Lukashenko.

It should be recalled that Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan is participating in the EAEU meeting remotely due to a coronavirus infection. Earlier, we reported that President Alexander Lukashenko and Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan had arguments during the EAEU meeting.
