<\/div>\n

Belarusian Interior Minister Ivan Kubrakou<\/b> has proposed expanding the powers of operational situation headquarters (OSH) so that they could make decisions under special conditions without a prosecutor’s authorization. He made the statement during a comprehensive command-and-staff exercise held by the Homiel Region police department.<\/p>\n

The Interior Ministry chief stressed the need for well-coordinated and prompt information exchange among the parties involved.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe issue should be worked out so that when acting under special conditions, we can make certain decisions without a prosecutor’s authorization. For this, the powers of OSH heads should be expanded. It is important to take all legal aspects into account\u201d<\/em>, he said.<\/p>\n

Kubrakou also identified prevention at enterprises and preventing people from being drawn into a \u201cdestructive movement\u201d as priorities, the Interior Ministry’s press service reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Interior Ministry chief stressed that the task of law enforcement officers is to prevent provocations.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll scenarios, including unscheduled ones, are aimed at testing the physical endurance of personnel and their readiness to use and handle weapons. This particularly applies to special forces personnel.<\/em><\/p>\n

When suppressing mass unrest, we work clearly and in a coordinated manner. You make the decisions and act strictly in accordance with the law. The main thing is to prevent provocations by stopping them at the very beginning\u201d<\/em>, Kubrakou said.<\/p>\n
