In an interview with American podcaster Lex Friedman, Volodymyr Zelensky said that at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Alexander Lukashenko called him and apologized for his country’s participation in the war. The disclosure of such information was a blow to the Belarusian dictator, and the reaction from Belarus was quite emotional.
Thus, Lukashenko’s press secretary Natalya Eismont denied the fact of the apology, having made an unprofessional step. This opinion was expressed to 24 Kanal by the head of the Center for Public Analysis “Tower” Valery Klochok, noting that Lukashenko is still a politician who knows how to achieve his benefit.
What Belarus’s reaction may indicate
According to the head of the Center, it would be strange to hear confirmation of Zelensky’s words from Lukashenko. The Belarusian dictator believes that he is a politician who knows how to stay in power and communicate with everyone.
Although this information is of a private nature, in war conditions such a tool, that is, disclosure, can be used, and even should be used. Therefore, this became an unpleasant blow for Lukashenko.
The Ukrainian president is now taking out of his reserves the diplomatic weapon that he has for a “rainy day”. Zelensky is trying to separate Lukashenko from Putin,
Klochok explained.
The reaction of Belarus shows that Lukashenko is simply trying to justify himself. However, according to the head of the Center, the Belarusian dictator should have conducted a major campaign and proved his position.
Klochok added that such a reaction could be due to the emotionality and lack of experience of Lukashenko’s press secretary Natalya Eismont, since Lukashenko is still an experienced politician who knows how to maneuver between political regimes.
His ability to remain in office is evidence of this. Even on January 26, so-called elections will be held in Belarus , all this is due to Trump’s coming to power (the inauguration will take place on January 20 – 24 Channel). Lukashenko does not have a clear understanding of what will happen after, he wants to show that he will continue to be president,
– he noted.
It is interesting that Eismont, when she refuted the words of the Ukrainian president, added that in the call Lukashenko wanted to warn that it was Zelensky who was taking responsibility for the deaths of people on the territory of Ukraine.
I wonder what the mafia runt thinks about all of this. Lukashenko does too. And he’s probably shitting bricks.
At any rate, Zelensky’s statement about Lukashenko’s plea for forgiveness is a very deep embarrassment for the mustached potato. Now, every man and woman on this planet knows about it.
I wonder what other interesting tidbits Zelensky has in his “rainy day” bag.
