Alexander Lukashenko: Belarus and Russia adequately respond to NATO buildup on the borders of our Union

I see that the Russian leadership is acting today in the same way mirroring the Western actions, meaning that we have a joint group of the armed forces on the West, which task is to ensure the safety of our homeland, Belarus and Russia. At the heart of this group are the Belorussian defense forces. In case of a conflict, they will be the first to go into battle, even before the concentrated united defense forces of Belarus and the Russian Federations will catch up with them.
