Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko asserted that Minsk has deployed nearly a third of its armed forces along the Ukrainian border in response to alleged troop buildups from Kyiv, which he claims may indicate an impending attack on Belarus. He mentioned that the border has never seen as much fortification and mining, implying that any Ukrainian advance would face extreme resistance.
Lukashenko pointed to what he described as Ukraine’s aggressive posturing, claiming to respond by positioning Belarusian soldiers strategically at the border. This move signifies heightened tensions, casting a shadow over regional stability, as Minsk accuses Kyiv of preparing for an offensive despite presenting no concrete evidence to support these claims.
