The Belarusian president also formally accused the United States of allegedly manipulating Warsaw.
The self-proclaimed President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, said he wanted to “improve relations” with Poland, despite the fact that he had previously accused her of preparing an invasion. This was reported by the press service of the official head of the Republic of Belarus on Friday, August 11.
He said that Belarus now lives mainly on Eastern funds, thanks to cooperation with Russia and China.
“But we must not forget about the high-tech West. They are close, they are our neighbors – the European Union. And we must not lose relations with them. We are ready for this, but taking into account our own interests. Believe me, the time will come (now it’s like “turbulence”, speaking in your language, the difficulties are great) – in 2024-2025, I’m sure there will be serious changes in the world, especially,” said Belarusian politician. .
The formal leader of Belarus also said that “it is necessary to talk to the Poles.”
“I ordered the prime minister to contact them. If they want, let’s talk, improve relations. We are neighbors, but they did not choose neighbors, they are from God,” Lukashenka was convinced.
Poland is now allegedly deliberately “complicating the situation,” because parliamentary elections will be held in this country on October 15.
The self-proclaimed leader of the Republic of Belarus also accused the United States of pushing Warsaw into such behavior.
“The Americans have staked on Poland. But the Poles are not fools. These are our people, the Slavs. They understand everything perfectly. Let’s be patient, we’ll see. We are open for cooperation,” he assured.
Recall that in anticipation of Lukashenko’s attempts to “reconcile” with Warsaw, Deputy Polish Minister of Internal Affairs and Administration Maciej Wosik said that Poland and Lithuania are considering the possibility of closing rail freight traffic in Belarus and isolate the “Lukashenko regime.”
