The President of Belarus sounds the alarm: We are preparing for war
Alexander Lukashenko

The President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, spoke about his intentions on peace, during his visit to Grodno, on the border with Poland and Lithuania.

"We don't need to threaten anyone. We do not want any foreign territory," he said in a statement issued by the presidential office.

"Don't believe anyone who says we want to fight," Lukashenko said as he laid the foundation stone for a hospital. However, he added: "We are preparing for war and I say this openly."

Lukashenko said Belarus was arming its army in case of an attack, accusing NATO members Poland and Lithuania of preparing for war by building fortifications and buying offensive weapons.

The President of Belarus reassured the residents of Grodno, which was Polish territory between the wars, saying: "You are ours. We will not hand you over to anyone."

A close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, Lukashenko allowed Belarus to be used to deploy Russian forces for the invasion of Ukraine, which began in 2022.

In Gomel, on the opposite side of Belarus, on the border with Russia and Ukraine, the Belarusian National Guard began a three-day exercise to test the readiness of its officers, according to the Ministry of Defense in Minsk./ CNA
