Belta news agency quoted President Lukashenko as saying: "There must be plans for any of their actions, our response plans. We have every opportunity... to respond to any of their actions with weapons. And not even with weapons, but with their aggressive intentions... This is the purpose of our event today."
In addition, President Lukashenko believes that Western countries are using the migration situation to restrain the Belarusian army in case of a conflict with Russia. The Belarusian leader stressed: "They may be worried that we have a smaller flow of migrants because they have used these people (we can see this) to solve their internal problems and keep us in suspense. They understand very well: as long as Ukraine tries to provoke a conflict with Russia, Belarus will not stand on the sidelines, so the Belarusian army must be restrained on the western border."
On the same day, Belarusian Defense Minister Viktor Khrenin accused the NATO military alliance of increasing its attack capabilities near the country's borders. A day earlier, Lithuania said that NATO needed to adjust its stance towards Belarus, a country whose military forces are increasingly integrated with the Russian armed forces./.
