Lukashenko accuses Ukraine of trying to drag NATO into the war "under any pretext"

MADRID, 1 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, has accused Ukraine again this Thursday of trying to drag NATO forces into the war "under any pretext" and has indicated that there has been an increase in "actions that seek to provoke" Belarusian forces near the border.

"All security agencies have noticed an increase in this type of actions near the border. Ukraine, under any pretext, is trying to draw troops from NATO member states into this conflict, and all this is confirmed by the a recent missile attack on Polish territory," he said, according to information from the BelTA news agency.

Likewise, the Belarusian president has indicated that the country is trying to "contain potential adversaries so that they do not use force against the country." "Until now we have managed to avoid this type of act against Belarus," he asserted before stating that, however, it is necessary "to constantly monitor signs that indicate that some type of aggression against the country is being prepared."

As he explained, Western countries "continue to build military potential, modernize infrastructure in the territory of neighboring countries and increase the intensity of training and combat activities." "All this aggravates the complicated military-political situation in the area and in the region as a whole," she said.

In addition, it has focused attention on the fact that the "opposition has increased its attempts to seize power by force" and has denounced an increase in the commission of terrorist acts on Belarusian soil."

"Some of these fugitives are not just traitors but extremists. I cannot call them otherwise. They are openly and without a doubt calling for attacks against targets that are in our territory and they forget that their own relatives live here," he pointed out. .
