Back in 2016, Belarusian specialists discussed with Ukrainian politicians issues of countering the “Anschluss of Belarus by Russia”; the discussion took place behind closed doors in the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.
Anna Gopko, who was at that time the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Verkhovna Rada, reported this on Espresso.TV, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Somewhere over a year ago, Lukashenko said that “Russia gives us oil and gas, and in exchange they want to take away our independence from us.” Lukashenko has long been... back in 2016, in the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the 8th convocation, in closed session with Belarusian specialists, we discussed the issue of the Anschluss of Belarus by Russia, we already knew that such a scenario was being prepared.
One of the options was “little green men”, as the Russians did in Ukraine. We saw protests in Minsk. Putin, after all, is preparing to join. This has been going on for a long time.
In recent years, Lukashenko has also been building an alliance with China, the EU, and the United States for the balance of power (in recent years they have had military attaches in both Minsk and Washington). Lukashenko understands that Putin’s embrace is close to its logical conclusion,” Gopko said.
