"On Point"
MINSK, 30 July (BelTA) – No one feels sorry for Ukraine but us, Andrei Bogodel, Deputy Head of the Faculty of Education and Science - Head of the Education and Methodology Department of the Faculty of the General Staff of the Armed Forces at the Military Academy of Belarus, said in the latest episode of the V Teme [On Point] project on BelTA’s YouTube channel.
The expert noted that Russia had been drawn into the conflict, and those responsible benefit greatly from the current situation. “The strategy of attrition in prolonging this conflict works both ways. But no one feels bad for Ukraine – we are more likely to feel sorry for Ukrainians. They are our kin. Recently on TikTok, I saw soldiers sitting in trenches on opposite sides singing the same songs - Katyusha and others. How can this be? They share the same language and culture, despite years of efforts to divide them,” Andrei Bogodel said.
