And you must necessarily be these patriots,\u201d<\/i> he added.<\/p>\n<p>According to his press service, about 2,400 children were invited to the celebration, including students of cadet schools and specialized lyceums, winners of various academic competitions, creative contests and sports events, students with achievements in community activities, orphans, children from large families and refugee families, as well as children affected by the consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alyaksandr Lukashenka today took part in a children\u2019s celebration held at the Palace of the Republic as part of the annual \u201cOur Children\u201d campaign.
