Almost every day, defense professionals and also dilettante discuss security risks on the eastern border of the European Union and NATO in various formats. On Sunday, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and the President of the European Commission Urzula von der Leiena arrived in Latvia. He met with Prime Minister Krišjānis Kariņš. It is safe to speak again in the spirit of the townspeople that “the construction of fences is not in line with the values of the European Union, while expressing deep concern at the hybrid attacks carried out by the Lukashenko regime to instrument migrants” and in that spirit. Today he will speak with President Egil Levit. European politicians hope that it will be possible to stop Alexander Lukashenko from extending sanctions. In any case, the circle of Belarusian officials and institutions who are not allowed to enter the territory of the European Union and with whom the citizens of the European Union are not allowed to cooperate or trade is being expanded. For example, the European Union is currently sanctioning the Main Economic Division of the Property Management Directorate of the President of Belarus. What about Lukashenko? Given that the Member States are currently preparing to impose a fifth round of sanctions, the Belarusian leader does not appear to be so influenced as to agree to the peaceful de-escalation of the conflict. He addresses a completely different audience than the outraged Eastern European leaders.
Lukashenko promises to help migrants
On Friday, November 26, Lukashenko visited the border transport logistics center “Bruzgi”, where migrants are accommodated before forcing the border. Visits can be viewed on the President’s website REPORTING. And he did not say at all – go home immediately, because the economic department of my castle cannot buy me a chamber from France and sprats from Latvia. He encouraged the migrants to endure and promised to do everything they could to get them to Germany. So all this talk about the effectiveness of sanctions and the first signs of Lukashenko’s concessions is nonsense. In his address, he called Iraqis and Kurds dear friends and said in a direct message that the offensive for Europe would continue: “Even if it is bad for Poles, Latvians, we will do what you want.” Mr Lukashenko said he would not go to war to build a corridor for migrants through Poland to Germany, but he would fully support efforts to enter the European Union on his own. “About 1,000 people who wanted to have already been evacuated. But the rest of us will not delay us, we will not hold our hands and throw them on the planes if you do not want to. If you want to go west, we will not delay you. If you leave, go! ”
Every day, 200 criminals succeed
In his speech, Lukashenko shared several more figures. There are currently around 2,000 people in the migrant camp, and around 3,000 in Belarus. About a tenth of the total number of migrants are children and another tenth are women. It should be emphasized that European politicians are operating with completely different data and it is assumed that 7 to 20 thousand illegal migrants are going to start heading for Europe from Belarus, but, as our Foreign Minister Edgars Rinkēvičs acknowledged, Lukashenko himself may not know these figures. To raise migrants’ sentiment and fighting spirit, Lukashenko also told them the operative data – how many are getting to the other side. On average, about 200 people cross the Polish-Latvian-Lithuanian border every day. Some are being hunted and deported back to the border. Around ten people a day are being collected and transported to the hospital by Belarusian border guards. On Friday, there were about 150 people at the border preparing to cross the border. Lukashenko’s statements are in complete contradiction to the statements of the Latvian, Lithuanian and Polish authorities that migrants are unable to enter the territory of the European Union. That they are caught. However, it is only possible to catch those who have been noticed. Undiscovered criminals go inland in Europe.
Afghans come through Ukraine
In his address, Mr Lukashenko called on the Germans to take in migrants in Belarus, as German Chancellor Angela Merkel had promised, and to call on the Polish government, which he said had failed, to release migrants through its territory to Germany.
“If the Germans and Poles do not hear me today, I am not to blame. We will do our best to meet your wishes. This is not populism. It will be as I have said today, ”Lukashenko promises migrants and threatens Europe. And the situation is made even more dangerous by inviting Ukraine to address its migrants. Afghans have begun to move west through Ukraine. Accordingly, Ukraine is attracting troops to the border, but on the other side are Russian troops, which are there to deal with the problems of neither migrants nor Belarus. Nule In a discussion organized by the Ministry of Defense, the experts came to the common conclusion that this winter may prove decisive for Ukraine. Russia’s pressure is already enormous, and new escalations on the European-Belarusian border would help further intensify it. As Europe spends time fighting criminals in the name of humanism and human rights, the Kremlin is shifting its figures onto the European chessboard at will. Europe may not notice. As if the occupation of Crimea was not noticed.
