Roman Chegrinets: the final point in the recognition of Crimea will be the visit of Alexander Lukashenko
the possible visit of President Alexander Lukashenko is the final point in the recognition of the peninsula by Belarus as part of Russia. His words are reported by RIA Novosti.
According to Chegrinets, Belarus de facto recognized Crimea as Russian back in 2014. “Now it remains to put the final point. And this will be done at the time of Alexander Grigorievich's visit to Crimea, “he said, stressing that the community had repeatedly invited the Belarusian leader to visit.
On December 1, Alexander Lukashenko said that de facto and de jure Crimea belongs to Russia, and also expressed a desire to visit the peninsula. He also said that in 2014, the Ukrainian military themselves asked Russia to take control of Crimea.
