Lukashenko tells about contacts with Putin within a day after the terrorist attack in the Crocus City Hall

President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko said that he was in contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin within a day after the terrorist attack in Moscow Region. The corresponding statement was made by the head of state at a meeting with Governor of Omsk Region of Russia Vitali Khotsenko on March 25, BelTA informs.

The head of state noted that less than a week had passed after the presidential election in Russia and the results were known. Alexander Lukashenko congratulated the head of the Russian region and in his person all the governors of Russia on such results, emphasizing that without their participation such results would not have happened.

"But, as time shows, we should not relax in any case. We will be tilted, rocked, brought to our knees. We talked about this with President Putin on the eve of the presidential election. We will not be given a quiet life, and the stories will be more and more complicated, as the recent events in Moscow suburbs have shown, unfortunately," said the head of the Belarusian state.

The President pointed out that in this difficult time the governors also bear a special burden of responsibility, including security. The tragic events in Moscow Region testify to this.

"We have been in touch with President Putin these 24 hours. We worked very closely. How it ended, you know. This is just evidence of how the two presidents should work in the Union State."
