‘I told you, Nikol Vovaevich wouldn’t go anywhere without us’ – Lukashenko to Aliyev

Before the official part of the CIS summit began, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko exchanged a few remarks with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.

“Ilham Heydarovich, you were saying ‘he won’t come,’ you were worried yesterday. See? I told you, Nikol Vovaevich wouldn’t go anywhere without us,” Lukashenko said to Aliyev and Pashinyan, who were sitting together on a couch in the hall where the President of Tajikistan was welcoming the heads of state and government of the CIS countries.
