MINSK, 14 January (BelTA) – The Belarusian People’s Congress is a healthy form of democracy and is an opportunity for the youth to have a say, Chairman of the Youth Parliament at Belarus’ National Assembly Yegor Makarevich told the ONT TV channel, BelTA has learned.

“I do not think that it is an outdated format. It is a perfectly healthy and sound form of democracy which the youth can utilize to make their voice heard,” Yegor Makarevich believes.

The Belarusian People’s Congress has already become a tradition of the sovereign Belarus, he noted. It brings together people from all walks of life, the ones who are capable of shaping the future of the country, Yegor Makarevich stressed. “It is only logical that the youth will voice their opinions at the congress,” he said.
