MINSK, 4 March (BelTA) – Israel’s treacherous attack on Iran with the support of the United States is unacceptable, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said during a meeting with Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Iran to Belarus Alireza Sanei in Minsk on 4 March, BelTA has learned.
“Wars are simply genetically unacceptable for us, because Belarus, being at the very epicenter of every major conflict, knows their true nature all too well. We have lost millions upon millions of people in every war that has taken place in our region. And basically, world wars have swept east and west across our Belarus,” the president said. “Therefore, we see Israel’s treacherous attack on Iran with U.S. support for what it is and it is unacceptable to us. All the more so because it killed innocent people, children above all.” “The spiritual leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei, has died. You know that I had good relations with him. I think we met about three times and discussed international problems. He was a humanist, not a military man, focused on protecting his people and his state. Therefore, what happened to him, to his family, to his wife who died from her wounds, is absolutely unacceptable to me,” the Belarusian leader said.
Aleksandr Lukashenko once again extended his condolences to Iran over the deaths of civilians, children, and Ali Khamenei.
