MINSK, 28 October (BelTA) – Ignoring the principle of the indivisibility of security is a fatal mistake, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said at the 3rd Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security on 28 October, BelTA has learned.
“The main reason for the lack of progress in global de-escalation is the consistent disregard for the principle of the indivisibility of security. As a result, international relations today are described not in terms of trust and cooperation, but by citing data on kilometers of new barriers and megatons of lethal weapons. Behind this dangerous arithmetic lies the fate of not just individuals, but of all humanity!” the head of state said.
“Ignoring the simple truth that the security of one state cannot be built at the expense of another is a tragic, if not fatal, mistake. The dramatic events in Ukraine and the Middle East are direct confirmation of this,” the Belarusian leader added.
