“I will say so, to a reasonable extent. So I recall on February 13, 2019, when in Sochi we were offered, I will not name the authors from the Russian side, and when we looked at what it was, “hands up” is called. The document that we were offered suggested 95% of supranational functions, ”TASS quoted him as saying.
According to BelTA, Semashko noted that the transfer of powers to the supranational level should take place “within reasonable limits, without prejudice to sovereignty.”
Earlier, Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko said that Belarus “is not against a single currency” with Russia, but that “it should be a neutral currency.”
