Lukashenko awarded Order of Honor to Azarenka and Samsonov

President of the Republic of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko granted tennis player Victoria Azarenka and table tennis player Vladimir Samsonov with the Orders of Honor.

- I usually say to the great athletes and used to tell Victoria: that is good you have achieved high results. Now you must choose someone like you, bring her up and help to repeat your success. It will be the gift for the country, if you have performed a feat and helped some other people to do the same, - said Alexander Lukashenko.

Apart from that, the Head of State solemnly honored senior coach of the Novopolotsk Youth Sports School Viktor Stremyakov with the title “Merited Coach of the Republic of Belarus”.
