Earlier, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko announced that "in Poland, Lithuania, Ukraine has begun training of militants, including Belarusian extremists, to carry out sabotage, terrorist attacks and organize military uprisings" in Belarus.
Earlier this week, President Lukashenko issued a directive to take anti-terrorist measures and ordered security forces to develop and assemble measures to control the military-political situation.
Foreign Minister Makei stated: "The head of our country held a number of meetings with law enforcement agencies, the anti-terrorist operation regime was issued. There is information that some neighboring countries are planning provocations related to the seizure of some areas in the territory of Belarus."
Mr. Makei said that today no one can be trusted, so all those measures are necessary to ensure the security of the people, so that "not a single meter of our land will be under the feet of the occupiers."
“Of course, in the current situation, not a single signal can be left without an appropriate response. Therefore, both the armed forces of the Republic of Belarus, law enforcement agencies and security agencies are ready to retaliate against any possible provocations from neighboring countries,” Foreign Minister Makei added.
Currently, the Belarusian Foreign Ministry and President Lukashenko's press office have not commented on the above information./.
