The Belarusian flag is composed of a red horizontal
band (top), a green horizontal band one-half the width of the
red band. A white vertical stripe on the hoist side bears a
Belarusian national ornament in red. |

The Belarusian coat of arms consists of a green
raised-contour outline of Belarus above a globe of the Earth.
It is bathed in golden sunbeams radiating from the sun "rising"
from behind the globe, and in the upper part of the contour
dominates a red five-pointed star. The coat of arms is framed
in a wreath of golden wheat-ears, interlaced with clover flowers
on the left and flax flowers on the right. The lower half of
the wreath is spiral-wrapped with a red and green ribbon carrying
a golden inscription "Respublika Belarus"(Republic
of Belarus).
This National Emblem symbolizes the respect of the Belarussian
people to constructive labor, their faith in the triumph of
justice and attainment of a high place in the world community. |
