ASTANA, May 20 (RIA Novosti) - Belarus has no revolutionary prerequisites at all, Stepan Sukhorenko, its KGB (state security committee) chief, said to a news conference in Astana, Kazakh capital, tonight.

"We have no grounds for a revolution, and no prerequisites for a revolutionary situation. The country enjoys social and political stability, and its economy is on an upswing. Revolution from the inside is ruled out.

"As for intervention from without, there is small chance for it-other laws are governing the world nowadays," he reassured.

The Belarussian secret service boss is in Astana for an 18th session of the CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) council of security and secret service chiefs.
