Lukashenko flew to meet with Putin on the day Zelenskyy’s ultimatum regarding the relay stations expired
On Friday, June 26, the self-proclaimed president of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, left for Russia on a working visit. During the trip, Lukashenko will meet with Russian dictator Putin.
“The heads of state are expected to discuss key issues on the agenda of Belarusian-Russian cooperation, as well as the situation in the region and around the world,” the press service reported.
This was reported by the local news agency BELTA, citing the self-proclaimed leader’s press service.
It should be noted that Lukashenko left for the meeting with Putin the day after he asked Russian Ambassador Boris Gryzlov “not to drag” Belarus into the war with Ukraine. Today marks the end of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s ultimatum regarding the dismantling of equipment that helps Russian drones target Ukrainian cities.
On June 19, Zelenskyy stated that he was giving Minsk seven days to comply with his demand; otherwise, the Ukrainian side would take action.
As a reminder, on June 25, Belarus’s self-proclaimed president, Alexander Lukashenko, stated that the peoples of Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus “will be together sooner or later,” and also reported on alleged talks with representatives of the Ukrainian government.
Meanwhile, the Russian dictator continues to pressure the self-proclaimed president of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, demanding that Minsk become more actively involved in the war against Ukraine.
