Lukashenko and Putin argued which of them is the greater aggressor
Belarus will not be able to defend its independence without the help of Russia.
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko announced this today at a joint press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Minsk, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“Russia can manage without us, but we can’t do without it. And we agreed that we would act on equal terms.
Or defense and security. Let's be honest. Are we able to defend our independence and sovereignty alone without Russia? No.
And in difficult times he did not refuse. Today they will howl: Putin has arrived and is scaring someone - just look. But he went to meet him halfway, as a person dear and close to Belarus.
Sergei Lavrov spoke about how we will act together in foreign policy, as has always been the case,” Lukashenko said.
He joked about how prejudiced he and Putin are in the West.
“Russia has always met us halfway. There is not a single issue today that has not been resolved. We are meeting the Russian Federation halfway in its most difficult moment. You know, the two of us are co-aggressors, the most harmful and toxic people on this planet. We have only one dispute: who is bigger. Vladimir Vladimirovich says that I. I'm starting to think he is. We decided that it’s the same,” Lukashenko said.
