Representative of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine Andriy Demchenko commented on the order of Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko to deploy multiple rocket launchers and “Iskander” complexes to the Ukrainian border due to “provocations” by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
According to Demchenko, this move by the Belarusian government is a clear sign of their support for Russian aggression against Ukraine. He emphasized that the Ukrainian border is already under constant threat from Russian-backed separatists in the Donbas region and the deployment of additional military equipment will only escalate the situation.
The representative also pointed out that the deployment of such powerful weapons near the Ukrainian border poses a significant danger to the civilian population living in the border regions. He called on the international community to condemn this action by the Belarusian government and to put pressure on them to withdraw their military equipment from the border.
The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine has also increased security measures along the border in response to this provocation. Demchenko assured that the Ukrainian border guards are ready to protect the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
This order by Lukashenko is seen as a desperate attempt to divert attention from the ongoing protests in Belarus against his regime. By creating a new enemy in Ukraine, he hopes to unite the Belarusian people and strengthen his grip on power. However, this move has only further isolated Belarus from the international community and has damaged their relationship with Ukraine.
The Ukrainian government has also condemned this action by Lukashenko, with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stating that this is a clear violation of Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. He also called on the international community to take a strong stance against this aggression and to support Ukraine in its efforts to defend its borders.
The deployment of Russian military equipment to the Belarusian border with Ukraine is not a new development. It is a part of Russia’s ongoing aggressive policies towards its neighboring countries, with the ultimate goal of expanding its influence and control in the region. This move by Belarus only serves to further escalate tensions in the already volatile situation.
In conclusion, the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine strongly condemns the order of the Belarusian dictator to deploy military equipment to the Ukrainian border. This action is a clear violation of international law and poses a threat to the security and stability of the region. The Ukrainian government remains committed to protecting its sovereignty and will take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of its citizens. The international community must also take a strong stance against this aggression and support Ukraine in its efforts to defend its borders.
