"They are outsiders!" Lukashenka is ready to take back doctors who went to work abroad, but only to wash dishes and take out the trash
Alexander Lukashenka, during a trip to Grodno on June 5, opened a new regional clinical hospital there and on this occasion intimidated local doctors, and also outlined brilliant prospects for their colleagues who would dare to return from emigration to treat Belarusians.

Lukashenka said that intelligence reported to him that during Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya's visit to Ukraine, she allegedly told Volodymyr Zelenskyy that "we have something to offer you — our Belarusians." According to Lukashenka's interpretation, this means that "we must go to war in Ukraine for someone else's will," "be meat fodder there."
Therefore, he said, "we must preserve our country." And when he allegedly asked his subordinates whether Belarusian doctors wanted to go to work in Poland, they assured Lukashenka that just now, the reverse process was in full swing:
"No, they say, they already want to return. We feel this. I see it in our commission; fugitives, including doctors and teachers, are already applying there. Why are you returning? You went there for salaries and other things.
Outsiders! Please, we will accept you, to wash dishes or do something else. To deal with these consumables and waste products, like what doctors handle, to take out the trash and so on. 'We are doctors, we want to work.' No, we have our own doctors here. And you, for now, stay there.
They are returning. I'm not saying these are bad people. Mostly, they were not bad doctors. They went, lost time, lost money, some lost their families. What did they gain?"
After that, he began to convince those gathered that "nobody needs us" in the West, and "carrying ammunition — you can do that here too."
