Lukashenka's inauguration round the corner: Workers putting gloss on downtown Minsk

On the eve of Alyaksandr Lukashenka’s fifth presidential inauguration street cleaners are scrubbing the pavement in front of the Palace of Republic in the Belarusian capital.

The inauguration ceremony is to be held on November, 6 in the recently-built Palace of Independence. A gala concert is scheduled for the Friday evening; on this occasion, there is a big fuss in October Square on Thursday: even a water tank was brought here. In addition to employees of public utility services, there have been lots of officials who seemed to be inspecting the process of cleaning the square.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”31838″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31830″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31826″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31806″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31818″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31822″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31814″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31810″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31802″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31798″ img_size=”large”][vc_single_image image=”31794″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][/vc_row]President’s ID will be handed over to the head of state in the presence of more than a thousand persons, including top government officials, MPs, heads of various levels and foreign guests.[vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]
