The source said the European Union has not recognized Lukashenko as a democratically-elected president. â€œThe European Commission has no experience to comment on the statements of individualsâ€. Spokesperson for the Commission Olivier Ballie also confirmed that the European Commission will not comment on the Lukashenkoâ€™s remarks.

Lukashenko said EU countries attempted to impose economic sanctions against Belarus. â€œThey’re all crooks. So I don’t want to talk about any Barrosos or other bastards like that. We are ideological enemy, a threat for them. The question is not about the democracy or dictatorship. We donâ€™t need in such democracyâ€. Lukashenko used the word "kozyol" - literally meaning ’goat’ but with a more vulgar force in colloquial usage - while speaking to press in Narovlya, near the Chernobyl site in southern Belarus, on the 25th anniversary of the nuclear catastrophe on Tuesday.
