Russian President Vladimir Putin told his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron that interference in the internal affairs of Belarus or exerting pressure on the country's leadership would be unacceptable, the Kremlin said on Tuesday.

Putin's remarks in a phone call with Macron echoed earlier comments made to German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Alexander Lukashenko, the leader of Belarus, on Tuesday awarded medals "for impeccable service" to law enforcement officials who have helped him crack down on protesters who have been demanding he step down for the last 10 days.
