"We ahvw conducted these negotiations for months already. The negotiations primarily concern the situation in Belarus, the dynamics of its development in the light of the upcoming parliamentary elections, as well as in light of changes in the European policy towards the Lukashenka regime. We aim to influence these processes, therefore, we meet, discuss, create a plan to work in Belarus and internationally."
