Belarusian Foreign Minister Sergei Aleinik has once again insisted on the need for Russia and Ukraine to reach an agreement to »stop the killing of people» and »declare a truce» in the conflict, which began on the orders of Russian President Vladimir Putin at the end of February 2022.
This is what Aleinik said on Wednesday from Hungary, where he held meetings with authorities of the Central European country. The Belarusian Foreign Minister said that both Minsk and Budapest advocate dialogue as a peace solution in the Ukrainian war.
We could not ignore the issue of Ukraine, a neighbor for our two countries», said Aleinik, who stressed that Russia and Ukraine must cease hostilities and agree on a truce to facilitate the implementation of a negotiating table »as soon as possible», according to BelTA agency.
In this sense, the head of the Belarusian diplomacy has stressed that Minsk will carry out all the efforts within its reach to reduce the tensions of the conflict. Belarus has already hosted several meetings between Russian and Ukrainian authorities during the first months of the war.
We consider the causes of the conflicts to be complex. We are convinced that the situation is provoked and inflated by the efforts of the United States and its satellites. They get profits, dividends and benefits from this, and everyone else bears the costs,» Aleinik remarked.
On the other hand, Aleinik acknowledged that Belarus is going through one of the most »alarming» moments in terms of national security, while defending that Minsk »has never created problems for its neighbors and strives to have good neighborly relations». We are not going to attack anyone,» he concluded.
