Dmitry Demidov: "Everything that has been done during the existence of sovereign Belarus, we are obliged to preserve"
In Vitebsk, the collection of signatures in support of presidential candidates continues. A correspondent for "Vitebskiye Vesti" attended a picket organized at the "Marko-City" shopping center in the regional center. Olga Klemyat, a member of the initiative group, noted that lunchtime was chosen for the picket because many people are present at that time. Vitebsk residents actively joined the process.
Dmitry Demidov, Chairman of the Regional Council of Deputies, also came during lunchtime to cast his signature in support of the nominated candidate.
– I believe it is the duty of every citizen of the Republic of Belarus to take the most active part in all stages of the election campaign, of course, to the extent of their capabilities and involvement in public life, and based on their civic consciousness, – noted the head of the region's parliamentary corps. – Currently, many people are working in initiative groups, collecting signatures for candidates. In the future, by participating in the life of public associations and political parties, citizens with an active civic stance will take part in the work of regional and territorial election commissions as observers. This important work, as a whole, demonstrates the maturity of our society.
Everything that has been achieved during the existence of sovereign Belarus deserves great respect, said Dmitry Demidov. And it is important to strive to preserve the course focused on social support for the population, to make life in Belarus more convenient, comfortable, and prosperous.
– It is important for Belarusians that the country remains sovereign, peaceful, and independent, so that we are not overwhelmed by waves of discord, chaos, and destructive manifestations. We, as citizens of our country, are required to participate most actively in all stages of the election campaign, – emphasized Dmitry Demidov. – In 2024, we successfully conducted the electoral campaign for the selection of deputies at all levels with a high patriotic spirit. All deputies were elected and are already working effectively. I believe that the 2025 elections will also be held at a high organizational level with the absolute support of the population.
