It is clear that this is aimed at escalating tensions, ”Lukashenka said. The Belarusian leader added that his hypothesis is confirmed by the actions of NATO in the Black Sea region.
“The Americans and NATO are behaving disgustingly in the Black Sea. The situation is especially heated for us. But we are not boys to succumb to these incomprehensible gestures, “the politician concluded.
