The deployment in Belarus would be declared a military exercise. But this was also how the invasion of Ukraine was prepared three years ago. It was unclear to whom such a deployment of troops could be directed. He sees no signals for peace from Moscow.
"Belarus borders three NATO states. It has become a foothold for Russian military operations," said Selenskyj. He mentioned long-range Russian missile systems and the stationing of nuclear weapons in the country. Selensky called on his country's Western partners to address the question of what to do before the next possible attack.
