MINSK, 18 July (BelTA) - No complaints were made against the Belarusian side during my meeting with UN Secretary General António Guterres on the margins of the SCO summit in Astana on 4 July, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said as he met with Belarus’ Permanent Representative to the United Nations Valentin Rybakov on 18 July, BelTA has learned.

“Recently, as you know, I met with António Guterres. It was an interesting conversation, an interesting meeting. Some media, especially internet outlets, interpreted it differently. They claimed that Guterres made some complaints against us. You understand perfectly well, being based in New York, no complaints were made against us. On the contrary, we received a positive feedback,” the head of state said.

 “Whatever the feedback... We see what is happening there, in the place of your work. Today we evaluate the ‘democracy’ and the hegemon, and other things accordingly. But these are their issues,” the Belarusian leader noted.
