It became known what Moscow wanted from Lukashenko, who threw a scandal
During negotiations with Belarus, the Russian side proposed creating 12 supranational bodies. This was the content of the 31st roadmap for integration, which President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko refused to sign.
RBC writes about this today, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“At negotiations on deepened integration with Belarus, Moscow proposed to begin work on the creation of 12 supranational bodies. These include a single emission center, implying the introduction of a single currency, an accounting chamber and court of the Union State, a single customs authority, a single body for recording the property of the Union State, single tax and antimonopoly authorities, as well as single regulators in the following areas: in the field of transport, industry, agriculture, communications, plus the regulator of the united markets for gas, oil and electricity,” the article says.
The document also allegedly discussed the development of “road maps” concerning the joint strategy of Russia and Belarus in the field of defense, the creation of common data banks of law enforcement agencies, and the unification of legislation regulating the activities of law enforcement agencies and intelligence services.
Let us note that all this was reflected in the Union Treaty, signed by Alexander Lukashenko and Boris Yeltsin back in 1996.
In December 2019, Lukashenko said that he would sign the 31st card if the people elected him president. He is running for a sixth term this year.
