As the press secretary of the Prime Minister of Latvia Sandris Sabajevs told LETA, during the meeting in Riga it is planned to discuss the current situation on the European Union’s external border with Belarus and regional security issues.
The meeting is scheduled for 2 pm at the Cabinet of Ministers.
Moraveckis said on Facebook that the geopolitical situation is currently very serious and requires a lot of diplomatic work, given that there are still large numbers of migrants from the Middle East in Belarus trying to cross the Polish border into the European Union.
“So I’m going on a trip to a number of European countries to talk about this geopolitical crisis provoked by [autoritārā Baltkrievijas līdera] Alexander Lukashenko’s actions, “he wrote. “Unfortunately, there are several signs that this geopolitical crisis will continue for many months or even years.”
It has already been reported that during the extended hybrid attack on the regime of the Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko, attempts have been made in recent months to send thousands of illegal immigrants from Belarus to Latvia, Lithuania and Poland, most of them arriving in Belarus as tourists from Iraq.
The European Union has accused the Minsk regime of trying to avenge support for the Belarusian opposition and of sanctions against Belarus in response to last year’s violent crackdown on protests.
Massive attempts by Belarusians to violently break into Polish territory began on November 8, when a large number of foreigners arrived at the Kuznets-Bruzgu border checkpoint, accompanied by Belarusian law enforcement officers, settling in the woods along the border.-
Belarus has reported that migrants have “voluntarily moved” from there to a logistics center a few hundred meters away.
