The Central Office of the Belarussian Green party protested against the killing of 275 parrots at the veterinary boundary control post in Brest.
On January 22, a smuggler tried to bring in Belarus 227 budgerigars from the territory of Ukraine, but he was detected. The contrabandist left his luggage and slipped away. On January 24, frontier Brest vets reported the “utilization” of the survived 275. “The killing of the alive birds which didn’t have any signs of bird flu is a barbarity and breach of the Belarussian civil code which says that the government or other temporary owner of neglected pets will have the right to possess them only if the owner isn’t found in 6 months” , the declaration of the party says. “Belarussian Green party demands immediate design and adoption of the statute “About the animal protection from the cruel treatment” and observance of the norms of law about the defense of unsupervised animals. Without the observance of these obvious steps, Belarus can’t be considered neither constitutional nor democratic state”. |
