The Belarusian people, who are allied with Russia, received a direct appeal from the Ukrainian army begging them to abstain from the “dirty war” being waged against their nation.
The statement released today, Friday, urged all Belarusians “not to comply with your command commands to conduct the war against Ukraine.”
The statement added that Minsk is seeking to drag the people of Belarus towards the “Russian War” and urged citizens to take the “right option” and move away from it.
However, the Ukrainian army issued a warning that “we will reply” if Belarus actively took part in the conflict.
Concerns in Ukraine that Russian President Vladimir Putin would open a new front in his conflict with Ukraine were reaffirmed by the recent deployment of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of armoured vehicles in Belarus, a neighbouring country.
From the southern Belarusian city of “Gommel,” which is close to Kiev, Russian forces scuttled toward northern Ukraine in February.
Observers are now reporting a rise in military activity in the area.
As part of the 9,00 joint Russian-Russian troops group, the Belarusian Ministry of Defense recently announced that around 170 tanks, 200 armoured combat vehicles, and 100 calibre mortar bombs would be arriving in Belarus.
Belarusians are urged by Ukraine not to take part in the Russian war.
