Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has responded to threats from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Lukashenko stated that Ukrainian military personnel do not want war with Belarus.

According to Lukashenko, the escalation of rhetoric between Ukraine and Belarus may lead to a new, even more severe mobilization. He called for an end to this «meat grinder» and not to drag the front with new mobilized personnel.

Situation in Ukraine

The situation in Ukraine remains tense. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had previously threatened Belarus, stating that Ukraine is ready to defend itself against possible aggression.

Lukashenko responded, saying that «one goal will be enough» to stop any aggressive actions.

Experts' opinions

Experts believe that the escalation of rhetoric between Ukraine and Belarus may have serious consequences. Each new round of threats may lead to new draft notices and new graves.
