Lukashenko was drawn into the impending coup in Belarus - deputy
During his entire presidency, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko did nothing to prevent the coup and, perhaps, was himself involved in organizing it.
Deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of Russia, member of the State Duma Committee on Budget and Taxes, member of the Central Political Council of United Russia Evgeniy Fedorov stated this on air on the BERLUSINFO channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“All candidates are pro-American, and Lukashenko is no exception, but he still has an internal position, such as the sold-out old man Makhno, and this is simply either random people appointed like Tikhanovskaya, or just American candidates.
The question is: to what extent will Lukashenko be drawn into the coup d'état system that is being prepared in Minsk? Because he's acting like an absolute idiot. I don't believe that an idiot was president for 24 years. To do this you need to be a smart person. He did not prepare people, did not prepare public organizations, did not prepare the information space, and does not control the situation even on television. This is called an idiot, like Yanukovych,” the deputy said.
According to him, on the territory of Belarus there are specially trained units of foreign mercenaries who can begin an assault on government buildings, and this will be a reason for the watering of Russian troops.
“It won’t be possible without an assault, they will assault, these will be specially trained units of foreign mercenaries, which, of course, are on the territory of Belarus, they are in apartments, they were recruited from Ukraine, from ISIS by the Americans. But if they launch an assault, it could be considered a military invasion. Obviously, these stormers will find a way to show them, their interviews on TV. Accordingly, a military invasion means the right to send Russian troops in accordance with the Union State Treaty,” says Evgeny Fedorov.
A very likely scenario is an economic crisis while Lukashenko remains in power.
“There will be a fall in the Belarusian ruble, a sharp rise in prices for food, for goods in general, for life, interruptions in public utilities and transport supplies, and bandits taking to the streets. In a couple of months we will see a sharp increase in banditry on the streets, just physical banditry. This is the path the Belarusian people will then have to go through. Enterprises will close even if there are no strikes because enterprises will gradually close. That is, there will be a situation of the fall of Belarus in the 90s.
I think yes - this option has a high probability. And then, in three or four months, the warmed-up Belarusian people will begin to make decisions. I think we should count on this option – a months-long confrontation. I don’t think that Lukashenko will capitulate,” says Yevgeny Fedorov.
