Belarus prepares for war in order to avoid it, President Lukashenko says

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has stated that Minsk prepares for war in order to prevent it, unlike the United States.

Speaking at a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Lukashenko said Belarus approaches defence policy differently from Washington, Caliber.Az reports, citing Russian media.

“Defence ministries or war ministries are sometimes put forward, as in the United States. But we always prepare for war so that there is none, while they have a war ministry to fight every day, God forbid,” the Belarusian leader added.
