In addition to the fact that they officially supply the most modern weapons there, I I think they are in charge of the full military resistance, the military process in Ukraine,» he said in an interview with the Japanese TV channel TBS, the TV version of which was shown on its YouTube channel by the Belarusian state TV News Agency.
Lukashenko: Russia offers Ukraine to become like BelarusAccording to the President of Belarus, Zelensky «roughly speaking, there are two phones on the table … satellite communications with (U.S. President) Biden and British Prime Minister Johnson.» «In order to end the war today, the Ukrainian leadership needs one signal from the UN, America, the West, a strong signal to end this war, and by evening the war will end… with Russia,» the war will end by evening,» Lukashenka said. At the same time, he believes that the US president would rather not call, because what is happening in Europe is beneficial for America. Lukashenka stressed that he means that the fighting will end quickly if «America takes a position to establish peace on Ukrainian soil.» «But they don't need this position now, it's not in their interests,» he said.
