Aleksandr Lukashenko sends greetings to participants of conference on constitutional development

Greetings to participants of the international conference “Constitutional control: modern tendencies of development and improvement”

Dear friends,

I send my best greetings to the participants of the international conference on the development and improvement of institutional control.

Such high-profile forums play a crucial role in strengthening relations between constitutional courts of various countries and help find common approaches to the resolution of issues.

It is symbolic that the event is held in the year when Belarus marks the 20^th anniversary of the Fundamental Law of the state and the 20^thanniversary of the Constitutional Court.

Relying on the principles and norms of the Constitution we build a democratic, social, legal state which maintains peace and concord. The establishment of the special judicial body to supervise the constitutionality of the legal framework was an important step on the independent way chosen by the Republic of Belarus.

Today the Constitutional Court plays a huge role in the country’s legal system. It ensures the enhancement of constitutional legality and improvement of the national legislation.

I am convinced that professional interaction between the constitutional control bodies will raise the efficiency of the judicial system and help protect universal human values.

I wish productive work, new achievements, strong health and wellbeing to the participants of the international conference.

Aleksandr Lukashenko
