It is recommended that in displays such as those containing the six historic flags that have flown over Texas when flags are ordered to half-staff, the Texas and United States flags should be flown at half-staff, and the other flags be removed completely from the display for the duration of the flags being at half-staff.

The coat of arms represents the golden contour of the state border of Belarus, superimposed on the golden rays of the sun rising above the globe. There is a five-pointed red star at the top of the field. The coat of arms is framed by a wreath of golden ears intertwined with clover and flax flowers.

Gov. Greg Abbott's website even provides flag status for those who hoist a flag. This Wednesday will be an excellent day to check.

According to the Decree, the name of the holiday was changed from “The Day of the State Emblem of the Republic of Belarus and the State Flag of the Republic of Belarus - the second Sunday of May“ to ”The Day of the State Flag, the State Emblem and the National Anthem of the Republic of Belarus - the second Sunday of May”.

The red stripe on the Belarusian flag symbolizes the courage of the people, the green one is the color of life and hope, forests and fields, the white stripe with an ornament is a symbol of purity and high spirituality.
