“We are in a decent international knead. Everyone in Europe. Americans destroy Europe. Great Britain is their stronghold. On the other hand, Poland, Lukashenko said.
According to him, Europe is not an enemy for the United States, but a strong rival.
Lukashenko said that Belarus plans to actively create a contract army.
“We look closely at this experience in order to protect ourselves in the future. Only this is our goal,” said Lukashenko.

Lukashenko emphasized that the state will always support large families.
The Belarusian leader also stated that he did not want a war for the people of Belarus.
“I do not want my people, especially with me, to fought. This is a terrible thing. We draw conclusions, lessons. We do not rattle weapons, but we are preparing to protect the country at any moment,” Lukashenko said.
