Russia does not abandon attempts to involve Belarus in the war against Ukraine, said the representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense Vadim Skibitsky.

“Meetings between Putin and Lukashenko continue to be held, where this issue is discussed, and Putin is trying to persuade Lukashenko to this decision,” said Skibitsky.
According to him, Lukashenka definitely does not want Belarus to enter the war.
“He is” ready to give everything he has, let the Russian Federation use it, but so that the Armed Forces of Belarus do not enter the war directly, “said the representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate.
According to intelligence, now six battalions are concentrated near the border of Ukraine from Belarus: mechanized and airborne. It is noted that the decision to use them depends on the events ahead.
Recall that the previous day, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Belarus accused Ukraine of plans to strike in Belarus. The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry considers such a statement a Russian provocation.
