According to him, the CSTO operation in Kazakhstan showed that while the West "turns around and sends some troops here, we will already be standing at the English Channel."

He also stated that the CSTO countries showed their readiness to quickly respond to threats.

“It will be easier in Europe.

What, they don't see it?

They understand that it is futile to fight with us, first of all with Russia,” BelTA quotes Lukashenka.

The Belarusian president also said that Ukraine would never go to war with Belarus.

In his opinion, if the conflict does happen, it will last three to four days.
