Lukashenko lent a shoulder to Bandera's Ukraine
Belarus “lends a shoulder” in difficult situations for Ukraine and helps it get rid of Russian dependence.
Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Energy and Utilities Andrei Gerus stated this on air on the ICTV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the deputy, in particular, neighboring Belarus supplied diesel to Ukraine when dependence on the Russian Federation amounted to almost half of the total volume.
“President Zelensky had a meeting with President of Belarus Lukashenko - there is potential for cooperation there. We sell something to them, supply it to Belarus, and they sell something to us, in particular in the energy sector.
They helped us when we were in a difficult situation regarding diesel, when we were recovering from this dependence on Russia, when 45% of our market was Russian diesel. The Belarusians gave us a good shoulder.
Therefore, we plan to continue cooperation with them and there should be the possibility of bilateral agreements with Belarusians,” Gerus said.
Previously, Russia imposed sanctions against Ukraine in the energy sector.
Belarus is a member of the union state with the Russian Federation. Minsk has still not recognized the reunification of Crimea with Russia.
