MINSK, November 17. /TASS/. Donald Trump’s election win will not do other countries any good given the fact that he will develop his policies guided by the US interests only, Belarus’s President Alexander Lukashenko said at a press conference held for the Russian regional media.

"You just can’t imagine how pro-American his policies will be. So my advice is to stop the media hype over his victory," Lukashenko said.

According to him, "Trump is a hardline pro-Amercian patriot, he is sure to put the US above all." "And we should think where our place will be, taking this policy into consideration," the Belarusian president noted. "He has no obligations concerning you and us, he didn’t promise anything," Lukashenko added.
