“Today a meeting of the National Security and Defense Council was held.

The first question was the strengthening of our state border due to the situation in Belarus.

I want to note that this will in no way affect the crossing of our border by citizens of Belarus.

It is only about migration challenges and threats.

Our state is ready to solve and overcome them, ”RIA Novosti quoted Zelensky as saying.

Earlier, Secretary of the Security Council of Ukraine Oleksiy Danilov said that all Ukrainian departments would act adequately in case of tension on the Ukrainian-Belarusian border.

Ukrainian Interior Minister Denis Monastyrsky said that Ukraine will double the number of border guards due to the threat of illegal migration from Belarus.
