Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko appears unfazed by the pandemic. He has not followed the European pattern of imposing sweeping restrictions.

Russia is still under lockdown and for seven days in a row it has recorded more than 10,000 new Covid-19 infections.

And yet Mr Lukashenko refused to cancel his military parade, since it serves a patriotic purpose: to remind people of Soviet-era hardship and sacrifices.

Speaking ahead of the parade, he said: "They gave their lives so we could live today, that's why we can honour our heroes on this sacred day. We cannot do anything different."

I do not know much about it apart from their is still football and vodka is suggested as useful.

Official figures suggest not many deaths so far but obviously could be fake numbers.

Have to wait and see.

I totally agree with him.....I don't think we should have a lockdown

The people who are going to die are Old People like myself....so why has everybody got to be locked down?

We have turned into a load of women

The economic consequences of this lockdown are going to cripple us

Just let a few more old people like myself die

A few young people are dying, but not a lot, we have over reacted.

Yeah after they were attacked, before they were attacked they were making nice with Hitler and murdering 22,000 Poles in Katyn Forest. Inglorious
