Ukraine records new attempts by Moscow to induce Lukashenko to participate in aggressive operations.

Ukraine records new attempts by Moscow to drag Belarus into war. According to Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, the Russians are trying to persuade Lukashenko to join Russia's new military operations.

Zelensky reported this after a meeting with the heads of Ukrainian security agencies.

According to the Ukrainian leader, during recent contacts, Russian representatives tried to induce Lukashenko to participate in "new Russian aggressive operations."

"Russia, in particular, is considering plans for operations in the southern and northern directions from the territory of Belarus - either against the Chernihiv-Kiev direction in Ukraine or against one of the NATO countries. It is from the territory of Belarus. Ukraine owns the details of the conversation between Russia and Belarus. Ukraine will certainly defend itself and its people if Alexander Lukashenko makes a mistake and decides to support this Russian intention as well," Zelensky said.

He also said that he had instructed the Defense and Security Forces of Ukraine to strengthen this direction and prepare a response plan for possible aggression.
