Aleh Haidukevich: I am not embarrassed to be opposition politician
The ex-head of Frunze District Department of the Interior has told Euroradio why he has left the police for politics, whether it is comfortable
to be an opposition member and whether he will run for President.
Euroradio: They say: "There can be no ex-policemen". And: "The police is beyond politics". How have you combined a policemen and a politician?
Aleh Haidukevich: I worked in the police for 18 years. I do not regret a single day. And I have been involved in politics since my childhood. Believe me, I am ready for politics more than many so-called politicians are.
Euroradio: Do you agree with all the programme documents of the LDPB?
Aleh Haidukevich: The Liberal Democratic Party is a team. I come to the team and it means that I agree with all the programmes that exist in the LDPB. It is a team and you should work as a team.
Euroradio: The leader of the LDPB, Syarhei Haidukevich, always says that this party is the real opposition. How do you feel being an opposition member?
Aleh Haidukevich: I am not embarrassed at all. I have joined the Liberal Democratic Party that represents the constructive opposition.
Euroradio: What will your functions in the party be?
Aleh Haidukevich: I will be the deputy head of the party.
Euroradio: Would you like to try running for President like Syarhei Haidukevich did?
Aleh Haidukevich: I am not inclined to do it now.
Euroradio: You had stable and guaranteed wages in the police. Being a politician in our country cannot guarantee anything...
Aleh Haidukevich: I have always done what my heart told me to do in order to help our country and our state.
