"I know that they are talking about military drills together with Russia on the territory of Belarus. Again. We will see how large they will be," he said.
Zelenskyy stressed that all this poses major risks for Ukraine.
"And, I believe, major risks for Belarusians," he added.
Background:
- It is worth noting that Poland's border with Belarus was fully closed during the Russian-Belarusian Zapad-2025 drills.
- Lithuania then extended the closure of part of its airspace along the border with Belarus, introduced initially ahead of Russian-Belarusian Zapad military drills, until 1 December.
