Zelenskyj’s appeal to Belarus: Don’t get drawn into the war
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on the people of neighboring Belarus not to get involved in the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine. “The Kremlin has already decided everything for you,” he said in his evening video address on Sunday with a view of Moscow. “But you are not slaves and cannon fodder. You must not die.” People should not let others decide for Belarus. Belarusian ruler Alexander Lukashenko met with Russian President Vladimir Putin again on Saturday. The Kremlin chief announced the delivery of Iskander-M missile systems to Belarus, which can also be equipped with nuclear warheads. According to the latest information from Kyiv, Russian troops recently also attacked Ukraine from Belarus. The country is a close ally of Russia. “I know that the people of Belarus support us, only us, not the war. And that’s why the Russian leadership wants to draw you into a war,” said Zelenskyj. At the same time, he called for more weapons in view of Russian attacks. Any delay in the delivery of weapons to Ukraine is an invitation to Russia to continue striking. “We need powerful air defense – modern, effective.” There are already agreements with partners, but they have to move faster.
