At swearing-in of judges, Lukashenko calls justice nation’s guiding principle

Chairman of the Belarusian People’s Congress and Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko urged judges to carry out their duties based on the principle of justice. He made these remarks during a swearing-in ceremony for judges of the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court, BelTA has learned.

“I swore to myself that I would do everything to ensure justice in society to the best of my ability. Remember, I said (and you, as lawyers, will understand it) that not everything can be written into law. Yet we share one spirit, one foundation, and one guiding principle: justice. And it falls first and foremost to you to uphold it. Be fair to our people and to our nation. I wish you happiness, good health, and a long life. May your work serve the good of our country and our people,” the head of state said.
