The Embassy of Belarus in the Belgium capital was picketed on an anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster.

Picketers raised posters in French and English: “Attention: contaminated area”, “Lukashenka is Chernobyl for Belarus”, “Putin is Chernobyl for Europe”, “Kremlin – threat of nuclear terrorism for Europe”, Radio Svaboda reports.

Dzmitry Pimenau, the head of the Belarusian-European Association, explains the sense of the last two slogans: “Belarus has no money to construct an NPP, so the money will be borrowed from Russia. Belarus has no specialists. They will be invited. A new NPP in Belarus is a nuclear power plant on the EU border. It means a nuclear threat for whole Europe.”

Picketers handed out leaflets in English and French informing about a danger of the NPP construction in Belarus.
