The ceremony of awarding black berets took place at the College of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on September 17 with the participation of the Minister of Internal Affairs Ivan Kubrakov, the correspondent of the Minsk-Novosti agency reports.

The guests of honor of the celebration were the First Deputy Minister – the Chief of the Public Security Police Yuri Nazarenko, the heads of the Department of Execution of Punishments, the State Internal Affairs Department of the Minsk City Executive Committee and the Internal Affairs Department of the Minoblis Executive Committee.

The symbol of honor, courage and courage was awarded to 51 law enforcement officers from different regions of the country, who managed to overcome the qualification tests.

- The National Unity Day, which we celebrate today, is relevant for the whole country, and especially for our department. Colleagues, when we are together, we cannot be broken or defeated! said Kubrakov.

According to the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, earlier candidates for the right to wear a black beret overcame an eight-kilometer march-throw in equipment with weapons, from which at the finish it was necessary to hit targets without a single misfire, as well as six-minute sparring with experienced rivals - owners of berets.

The Minister of Internal Affairs wished law enforcement officers not to stop there and expressed confidence that this day will forever remain in their memory.
