Lukashenko Apologizes to Zelenskyy, Says Entering War Would Harm Belarus

Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko apologized to Volodymyr Zelenskyy for past remarks while stating that Minsk will not join Russia’s full-scale invasion.

Given that Belarus has:

  • Allowed Russian troops to train in their country
  • Allowed Russia to launch part of it's invasion from their country, and only stopping two months later when it was clear that the blitzkrieg had failed
  • Allowed Russia to station missile launchers and fire into Ukraine from Belarus
  • Allowed Belarusian troops to fight in Ukraine and only withdraw them once it was clear that the blitzkrieg had failed

I'm not sure how Lukashenko thinks Belarus wasn't part of the war. It certainly was eager enough when they thought it would be short and they'd get some of the spoils.

You forgot about the radio towers that have been in Belarus that allow Russia to control long range drones. Ukraine took a few out already, but there are likely more. (I'll have to check recent drone paths to see if there are still issues.)

Lukashenko, stop drinking tea for a while, and get your windows tripple checked for correct installment

Uh oh.
