Belarusian President Lukashenko
As the conflict between Russia and Ukraine becomes increasingly intensified, Belarus is suffering from increasingly painful torture.
According to Russian News Agency html on the 410th, Rabo, chairman of the Belarusian National Border Defense Committee, said that Ukraine has blown up almost all bridges on the Ukrainian border and has laid mines on the border roads. The Ukrainian side sent not border guards, but national defense forces to the border. He also said: "We are under pressure. They aim at our border troops, , shoot into the air from time to time, and conduct aerial reconnaissance for a long time."
Why is Ukraine so eyeing Belarus and pressing step by step? The reason is that Belarus's manifestations in this Russian-Ukrainian conflict are gradually stimulating Ukraine's nerves, making them more and more crazy.
When Russia and Ukraine first started, Belarus remained relatively neutral. Not only did it reject the request of President Putin to send troops to jointly, it also did not provide Russia with weapons. Of course, their weapons were not rich. But don't forget that for a long time, the energy required for Belarus' economic development has been supplied by Russia at bargain prices. Due to sensibility, Belarus agreed to Russia to use its territory to strike against Ukraine, because it is closer to Kiev .
Lukashenko and Putin
In this way, they have formed a bond with Ukraine and its NATO behind it. Therefore, when NATO sanctions Russia, even Belarus brought it with them, which made Lukashenko very unhappy. He simply sent troops directly to participate in the special military operation, but the Belarusian army was only deployed within its own territory, and the purpose of its participation in the military operation was mainly to prevent the conflict from spreading to the country. Another small idea is to prevent nearby NATO countries from attacking Russia through Belarus, thereby protecting some of the "gateways" in the western region. This can be regarded as a trade in sincerity. If Russia collapses, Belarus will not have a good life.
This made NATO countries more aware that Belarus was a Russian accomplice. They wanted to get rid of it quickly, so they kept making small moves.
With the support of the United States, Polish , Lithuanian and Ukraine are helping the Belarusian opposition train radical militants on their territory to prepare them to return to China for conspiracy, terrorist attacks and organization of mutiny. Lukashenko accused Washington and Brussels of protecting Belarusian "fugitives" in order to turn them into a "political force." They "planned to significantly increase support for sabotage elements to worsen the situation on the western border to the point of opening up a second front", which is becoming a direct threat. Lukashenko also revealed that he was warned through unofficial channels that he would launch a "Crimean Bridge No. 2" type of strike against Belarus from Ukraine.
Of course, Lukashenko is not a good person either. He has served as president since 1994 and has been re-elected for six terms so far, and is also an iron-fisted figure. In August 2020, a "color revolution" broke out in Belarus, and the opposition encouraged the people to take to the streets to march and demanded that Lukashenko step down. With Putin's support, Lukashenko, holding the Kalashnikov assault rifle, walked off the helicopter and arrived at the presidential palace under the escort of the bodyguard. With years of hard-working methods to raise 0% of the 0, he killed the opposition in one fell swoop, successfully resolving the biggest political crisis after the country's independence 26 years ago.
In view of the increasingly severe external security situation, Lukashenko is also very vigilant. He had asked Russia to help it upgrade its weapon system earlier, and even wanted to bring Russia's nuclear weapon , but Putin did not agree. Recently, he reached an agreement with Putin on the deployment of regional joint forces, which will allow the Russian army and the Belarusian army to form a joint force to be deployed in Belarus. The mission of the joint force is "purely defensive."
This made Ukraine even more annoyed, directly cutting off the major bridges between Ukraine and Belarus, which was clearly guarding against the Russian and Belarusian coalition forces launching an attack on Kiev through the direction of Belarus.
Faced with the sound of sharpening the knife from Ukraine, Lithuania, Poland and other countries, Lukashenko was a little unable to hold back and shouted loudly in advance: air defense system is ready. If the West dares to invade Belarus' territory, they will be blown up and bloom.
Like Putin, Lukashenko should not be joking.
If Ukraine is not calm enough on the White-Ukrainian border next, deliberately creates trouble, and makes reckless moves like blowing up the Crimean Bridge , it will further stimulate the already anxious Belarus. With Lukashenko's personality, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents, which will lead to more serious situations.
Lukashenko also knows the truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. If he is forced to force him to the point of being in a hurry, he may end up directly. He follows China's example of " Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aiding Korea ", takes the initiative to defend the enemy outside the country, and stages a drama of "resisting Ukraine and aiding Russia and defending the country".
