Russian Ambassador to Belarus Alexander Surikov on December 23 stated that Alexander Lukashenko's victory in the presidential election in Belarus was expected. "We expected 70% of votes, the way it happened," the diplomat said.

However, according to the Russian ambassador, the Belarusian opposition was originally staked on the demonstrations after the presidential election, «because from the very beginning it was clear who wins the presidential election», BelTA informs. 
«We must learn to fight, to win in a competitive struggle, and not to stake on the Square», Alexander Surikov said.
