According to Oleksandr Lukashenko, Russian President Vladimir Putin did not tell him that he was planning a war, but on the eve of a full -scale invasion of Ukraine he asked to "cover" it if something happened. Oleksandr Lukashenko acknowledged that in February 2022 the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation crossed the border of Ukraine from the territory of Belarus. He said this in an interview with Diane Panchenko from August 17.

"Yes, from the territory of Belarus, some parts crossed the border of Ukraine," - said the Belarusian politician. Talking about the cause of the Russian invasion of Ukraine through Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko stated that President Vladimir Zelensky should be asked about it. The politician claims that on the eve of the full -scale war, Russia and Belarus conducted planned joint training in the Belarusian territory.

According to him, at the end of the exercises of the Russian Federation allegedly began to withdraw troops from Belarus and some of them crossed the border of Ukraine. Oleksandr Lukashenko also stated that there were no Belarusians among those military, so he "cannot be claimed. " He also claims that Kiev allegedly provoked Belarus. "We are accused of contributing to the beginning of the war. But no, the war was already going," Lukashenko said.

According to the Belarusian politician, Russian President Vladimir Putin did not tell him that he was planning a war, but on the eve of a full -scale invasion he asked to "cover" him if "something happens". We will remind, on June 27 political scientist Volodymyr Fesenko in a comment to Focus told why Vladimir Putin asked his environment and Alexander Lukashenko to intervene in the rebellion of Yevgeny Prigogin.

According to the expert, an attempt at a military rebellion in the Russian Federation has become a humiliation and demonstration of his personal weakness for the Russian president. On August 15, Alexander Lukashenko said that in Eastern Europe there is an accelerated militarization, so the placement of tactical nuclear weapons in the Belarusian territory is allegedly "adequate reaction".
