Quote: "Let's face it: we gave them a gift when we got bogged down in Ukraine. This is, of course, a gift to them. And here they started clinging to it [Ukraine – ed.] to bring our space to its knees."

Details: At the same time, Lukashenko believes that the main goal of the West is not Russia, but China.

Background: The Kremlin claims that it could not take control of Ukraine quickly because it was helped by the West.
