MINSK, 21 February (BelTA) - Belarus Minister of Foreign Affairs Vladimir Makei dismissed as nonsense the statements made by former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen on Russia's plans to annex Belarus and move closer to the borders of Western Europe, BelTA has learned.
When asked to comment on these statements, the minister said: “No comments. How can I comment on the delusions of some retired officers who have long been out of service and lost touch with reality?”
“There will be no comments on our part,” Vladimir Makei said.
