Belarus considers the West's reaction to the Ryanair incident as a planned provocation, Foreign Minister of Belarus Vladimir Makei told journalists.
"Not specialists, but political uncles and aunts in the West, possessing the leverage of power, began making political statements within 10-15 minutes after receiving information about the incident with the plane, naturally, with accusations against Belarus. This is alarming. We see this as a planned provocation, coordinated action. Naturally, we will respond to such things," said Makei.
