Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko states that Russia and Ukraine must reach a compromise to end the war: "The main problem of this conflict – remains without people"

The Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko stated in a recent interview that both Russia and Ukraine need to reach a compromise to end the military conflict, emphasizing that victory on the battlefield is unrealistic for both sides.

Lukashenko mentioned that Russian forces continue to advance but are facing a personnel shortage, a common problem for Ukraine as well. He insisted on the need to avoid escalating the conflict and emphasized that Belarusian forces will not be mobilized for war, assuring Ukraine that it has no reason to fear.

Additionally, Lukashenko expressed openness to a possible meeting with former American President Donald Trump, emphasizing that discussions should not be limited to human rights. This statement comes in the context of recently improved relations between Belarus and Washington.
