A SINGLE DAY OF INFORMATION

Topic: “THE CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF BELARUS IS THE LEGAL FOUNDATION FOR THE UNITY AND PROSPERITY OF THE BELARUSIAN PEOPLE. “

Just over three decades ago, the Basic Law of the Republic of Belarus established the constitutional foundations of the Belarusian state and society, defining the vector of political, economic and social development of our young, but already sovereign country. Thus began the countdown of a new historical stage of modern Belarus.

Along with this, acting as a connecting thread between the past and the future, the Constitution embodies the continuity of the history of the Belarusian people, absorbs the centuries-old experience of developing legal traditions and state building on our land. ”Belarus may be a young state, but Belarusians are an absolutely mature nation. It is impossible to challenge this status. As well as the fact that our Constitution embodies the achievements of many eras,“ the President of the Republic of Belarus emphasized on March 15, 2024 at a meeting dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the Constitution of Belarus.

The effectiveness of the Constitution, which is in force with amendments and additions adopted in national referendums, is proved by modern prosperous life in a sovereign country.

Today, there are five positions that need to be remembered when it comes to the Basic Law of the Republic of Belarus:

1. This is a truly popular document. In Western countries, such a new law is considered if it is adopted by parliament. Belarusians went further and adopted their Constitution in a nationwide referendum, which was preceded by an active public discussion.

2. The current Constitution symbolizes the dynamism of the country’s development. Each article of the Basic Law reflects the essence and spirit of the times. The Belarusian Constitution is modern, relevant and meets the challenges of the time.

3. The current Constitution is aimed at a high political and civic culture of Belarusians, a deep understanding of the processes taking place in the world and the country.

4. The Basic Law is the rule of life for the whole country. We live in a single legal, political, and cultural space. We protect and strengthen the ideals and values shared by all Belarusians. We are making plans for a successful future for us and our children.

5. Our Constitution is a document embodying the continuity and connection of all historical and national forms of the Belarusian statehood.

The Constitution of the Republic of Belarus is the foundation of the state, ensuring the stability of the constitutional system, security and progressive development of society.

The republican referendum held on February 27, 2022 convincingly showed that the Belarusian people are the true masters of their own destiny. And the adoption of the updated Constitution of the Republic of Belarus is evidence of the will of the people to preserve the socio–economic model of development, strengthen state sovereignty, and protect national identity.

”The unprecedented trust of the citizens of Belarus in the political system has made it possible to build a stable and independent state. And the fundamental values enshrined in the Basic Law, such as social justice, the traditional family, and historical truth, are the right guidelines for us, helping us overcome modern challenges and look confidently into the future,“ the Head of State emphasized on March 15, 2024 in his congratulations on Constitution Day.
