NNA – Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko saw that the tension that had existed for some time between the Russian army and the Wagner armed group, which carried out a rebellion in Russia over the weekend, had not been properly addressed.
quot;We ignored the problem and thought it would disappear on its own, but it did not happen. There are no heroes in this case,quot; Lukashenko said in remarks reported by quot;AFPquot; on the official news agency quot;Beltaquot;.
Lukashenko said: quot;My position (is the following): If Russia collapses, we will remain under the rubble and we will all die,quot; to justify the assistance he proposed to the Kremlin to settle the crisis with Wagner.
Also, the Belarusian president confirmed that he had ordered his army to quot;prepare for combatquot; when the Wagner rebellion broke out in Russia.
quot;I gave orders to the army to be fully ready for combat,quot; he said.
