“Stop your madmen” - Lukashenko directly addressed the people of Lithuania, Poland and Ukraine
President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko said that the border with Lithuania and Poland will be closed, and with Ukraine strengthened.
He said this today, unexpectedly arriving at a pro-government women's forum taking place in Minsk, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“I’ll tell you honestly: we don’t know what they’ll throw out next. We understand that there are very few techniques left in their arsenal before starting a hot war. Therefore, we are forced to withdraw troops from the streets, put half the army under arms and close the state border from the west.
First of all, with Lithuania and Poland. We are forced to strengthen the state border, to our greatest regret, with our fraternal Ukraine. In recent days, I have been forced, together with the President of Russia and the Minister of Defense, to rebuild the overall defense of the Union State. And we have intensified the long-planned military exercises that are taking place today in the west of our country,” Lukashenko said.
He also appealed to the people of neighboring countries to stop their “crazy politicians.”
“I don’t want my country to go to war. Moreover, I do not want Belarus and the same Poland, Lithuania to turn into a theater of military operations where issues that are not ours will be resolved. Therefore, today, in front of this hall of the most beautiful, advanced, patriotic people, I want to appeal to the people of Lithuania, Poland and Ukraine: stop your crazy politicians, don’t let a war break out!” Lukashenko said.
