According to him, this is the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko.

“Lukashenko still remains on our horizon, but the attitude towards him is not connected with his oil, gas and trade policies, not with the trade in“ Belarusian shrimp ”. The positive attitude is due to the fact that, first of all, with all the “buts,” he is perceived as a pro-Russian politician, not a pro-Western one, ”Fedorov noted.

He noted that people appreciate it.

Earlier, Lukashenko named the reasons why Belarus is a valuable partner for Russia. In particular, two Russian military bases are located on the territory of the country. According to him, the defense of Russians and Belarusians is “this is sacred”.

Lukashenko also called Belarus an outpost of Russia.
