It is not far from exploiting classic proverbs and sayings.
Judging by the headlines of the state press, it seems that propaganda is not trying too hard to present materials about Lukashenka. Here are some examples of headlines from the BELTA agency, judge for yourself:
“Lukashenka at the Quality Mark award ceremony: it was a competition of the strongest and equal”
“Not just a resource, but a national treasure. What Lukashenka calls the main mineral resource of Belarus”
“Lukashenka on the interest in Belarus in the USA: if we agree, we will cooperate”
“We need to make it beautiful”. Lukashenka named the main meaning of the task of improvement”
“If you produced it, sell it. Lukashenka outlined the competitive prospects of the motorcycle and bicycle plant”
It seems that propaganda is turning the ruler into a generator of banalities. And it is not far to the use of classic proverbs and sayings. They can be enough for all areas of life that the uncontested winner of the race delves into.
And again, we cannot resist examples. “No pain, no gain” (can be used for visiting a fish farm).
Or “No water flows under a lying stone” (summing up the work of a Chinese technology park).
For a meeting on the development of the agro-industrial complex, such a win-win option is suitable — “Autumn will come, it will be time to answer”. And for his irreplaceable self — the good old classic: “An old ox makes a straight furrow.”
