Belarusian President: ‘Jews steal without thinking’

The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs protested against Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko, who claimed that ‘Jews have assumed a privileged status for themselves and steal without thinking.’

Alexander Lukashenko, the dictatorial president of Belarus, said during a recent meeting on corruption issues: “There is a list of 30 suspects here. Forgive me, I’m not antisemitic, but more than half of the accused are Jewish.”

He also said: “What’s going on here? Have they (the Jews, TB) assumed a special privileged status? Stealing and not thinking about their future? In Belarus, everyone is equal before the law. Jews, Belarusians, Ukrainians, Russians, and also Poles. Everyone.”
