Klišević: Belarus makes a significant contribution to world peace and order

Belarus makes a significant contribution to ensuring peace and food security, said Sergei Klishevich, a member of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly, on the SBTV and Alfa Radio YouTube talk show “Budni”. He commented on the speech of Foreign Minister Maxim Ryzhenkov at the 81st session of the UN General Assembly, sb.by reports.

- Today, we are one of the main donors of peace and order in the world. We are an example for many countries in their domestic and foreign policies aimed at a calm and peaceful life. And we want this to happen all over the world, said Sergey Klishevich.

According to him, Belarus demonstrates this in a variety of ways. First of all, it is about ensuring food security. Today, about 645 million people on the planet are hungry – about 8% of the population. Belarus is actively working with the regions suffering from this problem - Africa, Latin America, Asia, supplying products and technologies there, training personnel for agriculture, producing equipment.

Hunger and war are the same result: death. This is unacceptable. Therefore, our contribution is obvious, we are constantly increasing volumes, the deputy stressed.

Belarus is also a recognized platform and initiator of peace initiatives to resolve conflicts. Sergey Klishevich recalled the country’s contribution to the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine, Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as initiatives on Libya and Syria:

- Belarus acts as a reliable negotiating platform for resolving military conflicts on the planet. We are not only in favor of a peaceful solution to the conflict in Ukraine, but are also active initiators of global processes, in particular the Charter of Multipolarity and Diversity, which is actively promoted by our country and our diplomats around the world.

According to Sergey Klishevich, the Charter advocates that there should be no conflicts, that countries should be able to trade and communicate calmly, that there should be no lawlessness, which reigned after the UN and its institutions ceased to work. This is evidenced by the inability to prevent at least one conflict or solve at least one global problem.

- In the context of the international legal crisis, we must make every effort to form a new working world order, a new world legal system. The old one is no longer working, it is difficult to revive it, given how some states do, putting their national interests above the interests of other peoples and are ready to let them into the meat grinder for the sake of an extra billion.

He stressed that Belarus will not remain silent because it paid too high a price to become a founding member of the UN. The country became it solely due to its significant contribution to the defeat of fascism and saving the world from destruction. Every third Belarusian died.

- Having suffered such losses, we must do everything today to ensure that this does not happen again on the planet. Unfortunately, it is beginning to repeat itself in different parts of the world. The result is one – the destruction of a person, exactly the same as what happened in our country during the Great Patriotic War, added Sergey Klishevich.

Belarus is a bright beacon of good-neighborliness, mutual respect, mutually beneficial cooperation and is ready to share this policy with the whole world. This was stated by the Foreign Minister from the UN rostrum.
