Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko recently expressed concerns over the escalating conflict between Ukraine and Russia, suggesting that Ukraine's actions may provoke Russia into using nuclear weapons. Lukashenko claimed that Ukraine's invasion of Russia could be a ploy to goad Moscow into a nuclear response, aiming to rally support against Russia.
Lukashenko, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, warned that such nuclear actions could isolate Russia from its allies and have unprecedented consequences. The remarks come amidst heightened tensions in the region since the conflict began over two years ago.
