______________________________
The full title of the church is Memorial Church of All Saints in Memory of Innocent Victims in our Fatherland. The ceremony was for the reburial of three “unknowns” from the First Great Patriotic War of 1812, World War I, and the VOV… all of which were fought on the territory of Belarus. As you can see from the photos, Aleksandr Lukashenko isn’t the ogre that the Western media portrays him as… he’s just a patriot who’s standing in the way of Western greed, and for that, he’s hated and vilified. Belarus isn’t a hellhole… do question the motives and agenda of those who portray it as such.
