Russian leader Vladimir Putin has not appeared in public since Friday night, March 22, when a terrorist attack occurred near Moscow. However, he managed to talk to his Belarusian colleague Alexander Lukashenko. This was reported by the Russian publication jellyfish.

Another Russian publication The Insider note that state channels in the Russian Federation prepared to publish Putin’s address related to the terrorist attack three times a night. In addition, RIA Novosti also published an announcement of his appeal in the evening, but later called it a “mistake.”

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Saturday morning, March 23, that the interlocutors “confirmed their readiness to cooperate in the fight against terrorism.”

Pool first said that the formal leader of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, expressed “deep condolences in connection with the terrorist attack that took place in the Moscow region.”

We remind you that Russian law enforcement officials allegedly detained 11 people involved in the shooting. Specifically, four possible terrorists directly involved in the Crocus City Hall shooting. Russian special services were convinced that the fugitives were heading for the Russian-Ukrainian border and allegedly planned to cross the border, and allegedly “had contacts on the Ukrainian side.”
