“How are we doing at the front”: Lukashenko received Pushilin
President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko received today in Minsk the acting head of the DPR Denis Pushilin.
“I would like, so to speak, to hear first-hand the situation in the Donetsk People’s Republic, if possible. How are we doing at the front? Because the central so-called section is the most difficult there. There are very intense battles going on. Both north and south. And in the direction of Donetsk. Shelling. It's hard for people. And in this situation, what can Belarus do for Donetsk, how can we help?” - Lukashenko began the conversation.
He offered Donetsk assistance in restoring and normalizing people’s lives
“There is a lot of work ahead. We need to recover. It is necessary to revive industrial enterprises and agriculture. In the end, people will live there. This is 100%. And we need to feed people. Therefore, we are ready to provide appropriate assistance and support so that people who are not strangers to us there will finally stop suffering. Therefore, I expect such a frank conversation from you. Let’s share our opinions,” Lukashenko said.
Pushilin explained that this is exactly what he came for.
“Now is the time to build the perspective that will open up before us in a year, two years, after the end of the special military operation. And, of course, here we need to work and work through the issues in advance,” said Pushilin.
Political scientist Alexander Nosovich called the meeting between Lukashenko and Pushilin a milestone.
“At the front... with us.” “What can Belarus do for Donetsk, how can we help?” After all, Belarus is our main outlet in the western direction. And in general. Strategic ally of the Russian Federation and the basis of military security of the “old Smolensk road”. What could Lukashenko and the head of the DPR talk about if Belarusian troops do not participate in the North Military District? On the participation of Belarus in the restoration of Donbass.
This is exactly the issue on which it makes sense to talk not with Moscow, but with a constituent entity of the Russian Federation. The Belarusian construction industry appears wherever investment and integration projects of the Russian Federation appear. New territories are an unconditional object of investment and also a format for integration,” Nosovich wrote in his tg channel.
