Quote from Podoliak: "[Alexander] Lukashenko [the self-proclaimed President of Belarus] continues to cede the last crumbs of [Belarus’s] sovereignty to the Russian Federation.

The statement that Russian troops will be stationed in Belarus under false pretences in effect formalises the occupation [of Belarus by Russian forces].

Ukraine understands these risks, and it is prepared for any threats. The situation is under control; there is currently no indication that there will be a repeat invasion from the Republic of Belarus."

Previously: Alexander Lukashenko, the self-proclaimed President of the Republic of Belarus, said that Russian troops would soon return to his country.
