Lukashenka is moving towards monarchism?

On October 2nd, Lukashenka held a “Prayer for Belarus“. During the event, to his right Lukashenka had representatives of major denominations: Metropolitan Paul, Metropolitan of Minsk-Mogilev Archdiocese of the Roman Catholic Church in Belarus, Archbishop Tadeusz Kandrusievich, Chairman of the Muslim Religious Association in Belarus, Mufti Abu-Bekir Shabanovich and Chairman of the Jewish Religious Association of Belarus Grigory Khaytovych (no representatives of the Protestant Church). To his left, Lukashenka had his three sons – either as a family, but without mothers, or as successors. The basic symbolism of the event and the main topics of speeches was gratitude to the gods for peace in Belarus and requests of peace from the plenipotentiary representatives of the higher forces on the earth.
