Lukashenko responded to reproaches regarding Belarus’ assistance to Russia: up to 60 countries help Ukraine
In an interview with Rossiya TV channel, President of Belarus Aleksandr Lukashenko responded to reproaches about the republic’s assistance to Russia, BelTA reports
"The West and Ukrainians reproach us of rendering assistance to Russia, but I tell Ukrainians, “Almost sixty most developed countries help you, while this [Russia] is our ally.” We are legal, actual and mental [neighbours and allies with Russia],” the Head of State stressed. "I declare and openly tell Ukrainians about it.”
"Why shouldn't we help them? That is why I am not hiding it. What should I hide? True, a large share of our co-operation is mostly hidden. The war is going on, so no one reveals everything,” the President explained.
