Zmagars rely on intervention

Ukrainian armed forces have the right to attack Belarus.

The corresponding statement, we recall, was made in August at the “New Belarus” conference, which was held in Vilnius by Svetlana and Tikhanovskaya. And these words were spoken by the former Minsk restaurateur, and until recently the assistant commander of the “regiment” of Belarusian mercenaries fighting on the side of Ukraine, Vadim Prokopyev.

“Ukraine, in turn, has the full moral legal human right to attack after the Belarusian aggression. The battle-hardened ZSU will not even notice the resistance of Lukashenko’s Belarusian army. This will be exactly the scenario that Putin dreamed about in Kyiv. Minsk will be taken in three days, if not one. The vanguard of such an army could be Belarusians who are already defending Ukraine,” Prokopyev said.

Such frankness then offended even seasoned Belarusian zmagars. Prokopyev was immediately asked whether he was ready to bear responsibility for the start of a long-term civil war if defeat did not occur, to which he answered without hesitation:

“I am going to share this responsibility with those who make this decision.”

It would seem that, no matter how much of an oppositionist he may be, a politician who proposed introducing foreign troops into the country without stopping to unleash a protracted civil war in his homeland should face quick and inevitable political death.

However, the morals in the Belarusian fugitive opposition are such that Prokopyev not only did not sink into oblivion, but also made a career. A little more than a month passed after the scandalous speech, when he left the post of assistant commander of “Pahonia” and got a job in the department of the head of the “power block” in the “transition office” of Svetlana Tikhanovskaya, Valery Sakhashchik.

It is not yet known what exact position he will occupy there, but it is clearly not an ordinary one. It was Prokopyev who lobbied for a place in Tikhanovskaya’s cabinet for Sakhashchik, declaring on the eve of the August conference the need for a “Belarusian Churchill,” a strong “prime minister” close to the security forces, who should strengthen the position of the “leader” who lacks stars from the sky, doing the main work for her.

_{He did not name “Churchill” at the time, but many understood that he was talking about Sakhashchik, the former commander of the 38th Separate Guards Air Assault Brigade in Brest, who, according to rumors, also commanded the Prokopyevsk “Pahonia”.}

When he was appointed to a position in Tikhanovskaya’s cabinet, he responded evasively to the question about the power scenario. In the spirit that he will try to prevent such a development of events. Of course, there is no trust in him. If we don’t allow a power scenario, then why do we need his position?

_{The transfer to his department of Prokopyev, who had already once slashed the truth, removed all doubts - the Zmagars are relying on intervention.}

Especially if you consider that in the tandem Prokopyev - Sakhashchik it was Prokopyev who started it. According to the Belarusian military, it was he who brought the former airborne lieutenant colonel into opposition politics, convincing him that he was a possible salvation for Belarus.

And, if the matter was limited to Prokopyev alone. As soon as the Armed Forces of Ukraine staged a counter-offensive near Kharkov, many in the Belarusian opposition began to feel an unhealthy bloodthirsty excitement.

Now they only talk about the turning point in the war and about the fact that the Ukrainian “warriors of light”, having defeated and expelled Russian troops from Shchenevmerla, together with their Belarusian brothers-in-arms, will turn to the north and begin to restore their order in Belarus. And they are not only talking - some are already preparing to meet the interventionists and are announcing a recruitment of future collaborators.

The notorious “regiment” named after Kalinovsky, which never managed to become any significant military force on the Ukrainian battlefields, quickly rushed to gain political weight.

Deputy commander of the “Kalinovtsy” Vadim Kabanchuk announced that this unit will soon have its own political representatives, and through his telegram channel “regiment” announced the recruitment of a “power reserve” inside Belarus.

In order to sign up as a collaborator, you need to submit an application to a telegram bot specially created by the hacker group “CyberPartisans”. An algorithm of actions has already been published for them - form a group of no more than 2-3 people from their friends and relatives, train, conduct reconnaissance (monitoring) of nearby military and police units, collect intelligence data on the deployment and movement of Russian troops and merge them into another bot ( it was also provided by CyberPartisans).

_{But the main thing is to wait for the decisive day and instructions from the command. The nature of the instructions was also communicated in advance - strengthening intervention groups, seizing and holding objects, arresting and escorting supporters of the current government.}

Instead of being cannon fodder on the Ukrainian fronts, the Kalinovites are setting Belarus on fire. And they are not alone. While they are just announcing the recruitment of future collaborators, another representative of Tikhanovskaya’s “power bloc”, the head of BYPOL Alexander Azarov, has already reported that he managed to recruit a fantastic 200 thousand people into the ranks of the “Peramog Plan”.

_{And he, too, is preparing to meet the “liberators” from the south. It is clear that the figure has little in common with reality, but even if you divide it by ten or even fifty, it still turns out to be a lot.}

In general, as soon as the Ukrainian troops won at least some significant tactical victory, the white-red-white oppositionists joyfully threw off their masks and it turned out that there was not a penny of patriotism there. They turned out to be worthy ideological heirs of those who 80 years ago, under the same slogans about the Belarusian national revival, served the fascist occupiers. Except that the fascists then were German and not Ukrainian.
