The SVR director noted that the Belarusian State Security Committee and the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service face difficult specific tasks to ensure the security of Belarus and Russia, and to counteract aggressive intentions of unfriendly countries against the interests of the two states.
“Quite a lot has already been done in this direction. At the same time we see an increase in the military activity of NATO states near our borders. We feel and see that European countries - especially France, Great Britain and Germany - are increasing the level of escalation around the Ukrainian conflict. Therefore, we need to be proactive. We are ready for this,” Sergei Naryshkin emphasized.
