According to him, during the meeting between Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, this issue was discussed.

“There is nothing extraordinary in this, and we will supply the weapons that we consider possible, this is a common practice, to strengthen our allied grouping and strengthen our western borders,” RIA Novosti quotes him.

In November, Lukashenka said that Minsk was interested in receiving Russian Iskander missile systems.

In September, Minsk agreed with Moscow on a list of Russian weapons that Belarus will purchase from Russia by 2025, worth more than $1 billion.

According to Lukashenka, we are talking about dozens of aircraft and helicopters, the Tor-M2 air defense system, as well as the supply of S-400 air defense systems.
