Makei called Russia Rushes
Foreign Minister of Belarus Vladimir Makei, known for his pro-Western views, called Russia Russia in an interview with Euronews, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The presenter asked questions to the minister in English in a very aggressive manner. Makei answered in Russian. Apart from “Rashi”, he did not make a single reservation.
“This is not about Russia helping the regime stay in power. Not at all. Our relationship with Russia is dictated by our geographical location and our history. Russia is our neighbor. It is a powerful power, both economically and militarily. This power is a geopolitical player on the world stage. This explains the need to build normal friendly relations with this power,” Makei said.
He also noted that Belarus is connected with Russia “by a centuries-old history of human contacts.”
