China News Agency, Moscow, March 2 According to the Belarusian news agency, Belarusian President Lukashenko stated at the Belarusian-Russian military cooperation meeting held in Minsk on the 2nd that Russian fighters can be deployed in Belarus to work with Belarusian fighters.

　　Lukashenko said that NATO planes flew directly to the Belarusian border not long ago, and we urgently lifted off a new Su-30 fighter jet to drive them away.

This shows that they (referring to NATO) will continue to disturb us.

We must respond to this.

　　Lukashenko said that in 2014, Russian fighter planes flew to Belarus and the pilots of Russia and Belarus carried out joint duties.

This experience can also be used in the future.

We have enough bases.

"If they (referring to Russian aircraft) can be stationed at our base, our people can fly with Russian pilots."

"At that time we need to equip the aircraft with the most advanced weapons, not nuclear weapons, but conventional weapons."

　　Lukashenko talked about the previous meeting with Russian President Putin in Sochi, Russia, and said that both sides are very concerned about cooperation in the military field.

The Russian army is one of the most powerful in the world, so it will be reasonable for the Belarusian army to use advanced tactics and develop the latest weapons together with the Russian army.

　　On the same day, Lukashenko also mentioned that Russia has produced medium-range passenger aircraft, and Belarus is preparing to produce components for Russia, and we need to cooperate more closely.

　　According to TASS news agency, Belarusian Assistant Minister of Defense Voinov revealed on the same day that Belarus and the Russian military have signed a five-year strategic partnership plan.

　　Russia and Belarus signed a treaty establishing alliance states in December 1999.

The treaty stipulates that the two countries shall establish a confederate state while maintaining their respective national sovereignty, independence and national system.

On February 22 this year, Lukashenko and Putin met in Russia to discuss issues such as strengthening cooperation between the two countries.
