"On Point"
MINSK, 11 August (BelTA) – Once the US stops supplying weapons to the Kiev regime, peace will follow, national security expert Aleksandr Tishchenko said in a new episode of the V Teme [On Point] project on BelTA's YouTube channel while commenting on an interview of Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko with the U.S. magazine TIME.
“All these issues are connected to a complex topic, but I will say that a lot depends on the United States. It has been said many times: stop supplying weapons to the Kiev regime and events will take their natural course toward peace. Putin hardly needs a meeting with Zelensky. What is needed is that the other side signs documents of surrender. Nothing more, nothing less,” Aleksandr Tishchenko said. “There is an illusion that Ukraine will change. If everything stops now, let me say, a truce or something else... Peace will be possible only when America and Russia come to an agreement. And Kiev simply complies. It is very important that the United States and Russia come to a consensus.”
Belarus, more than anyone else, is interested in a quick peaceful settlement of the conflict. Increased goods movement, cargo flows and passenger traffic would be highly advantageous for Belarus as the economy will start picking up steam, the expert said.
