In the event that Poland "gets into the Ukraine", Belarus will support Ukrainians. Alexander Lukashenko said this today, October 4, during a conversation with residents of the agro-town of Parokhonsk.

Lukashenko drew attention to the fact that Ukraine also has its own interests. Poland. And the attitude of the Polish elites towards Ukraine is appropriate. At the same time, the main stumbling block between the countries is now the so—called Volyn massacre - the mass destruction of the Polish population by the Ukrainian Insurgent Army during the Great Patriotic War.

"During the war, whatever happened… Ukrainians burned Khatyn in our country. What were they doing on Pripyat, ruled by fascists, is a nightmare. So, are we going to live all our lives in the meantime, until we die?" — said the Belarusian leader.

According to him, the basis of Poland's claims is the desire to grab the western part of Ukraine.

"Both western Belarus and western Ukraine. And dominate there. This is unacceptable for us. If only the Poles will get into the If they try to cut off Ukraine from the West, we will support the Ukrainians. Because we understand that we will be next," Lukashenko stressed.

It should be recalled that Minsk has repeatedly stated that they see Poland's desire to seize the lands of Ukraine and Belarus to the west. In this regard, the Belarusian authorities have strengthened the western borders of the republic and declared their readiness to repel any external aggression, including the use of nuclear weapons.
