Deputy Secretary of State Stephen Biegun issued a statement Monday saying that the US had not seen any indication to suggest that Russia was planning to intervene in the political crisis in Belarus, comments made after long-time Belarus ruler Lukashenko claimed Russia might do so.
Biegun’s comments came in Lithuania, where he met with other Belarussian politicians, and declared that any Russian involvement would be “most unwelcome.” Belarus is a neighbor of Russia and NATO member Lithuania.
Biegun says that the US position is that Belarus should accept the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe to facilitate the post election dispute, saying that the US will not decide the course of events unilaterally. The OSCE has expressed willingness to discuss the matter.
Despite allegations of Russian involvement, Russian state media has largely dismissed the idea of getting involved, saying Lukashenko’s problems mirror the fall of late-era Soviet officials, and seeming unconcerned by what happens next.
that the opposition school teacher, now in Lithuania has met w the regime change fascist Levy and now with the amerikan fascist ambassador speaks volumes
Belarus is not Ukraine
I cannot believe that Russia would quietly allow Belarus slip into the NATO camp.
“NATO member Lithuania.” now, NATO wants all of the former Soviet partners into its obsolete group of warmongers.
