Markelov: Provocations of European Union do not hinder cooperation between Belarus and Russia

27 июля 2022

Provocations on the part of the European Union do not hinder the cooperation between Belarus and Russia. This opinion was expressed by well-known Russian political analyst and journalist Mikhail Markelov. According to him, both countries are acting according to their ideologies. It is obvious that by their actions European authorities only destroy themselves.

Mikhail Markelov, journalist, political analyst (Russia):

We have to keep our hand on the pulse, especially in the current conditions it concerns Belarus. The fact that there is tension on the border, we see these attempts to create an artificial migration crisis, which the Belarusian authorities have managed to resolve just absolutely calmly, we see it in the accumulation of troops, which are now concentrated on the border with Belarus from the side of Poland. But, nevertheless, I would like to emphasize once again: there is a feeling that people take a boomerang, launch it, and it goes back not in their hands but in their foreheads. We must go our own way and calmly react to such outbursts, and respond to them in the same way that you do. The today's contacts, the permanent online link between our President Putin and Belarusian Lukashenko, show that the presidents have their fingers on the pulse, that they fulfill their obligations or fulfill their agreements, but today we have one of the strongest partners, Belarus, with which we will be developing and moving forward. It is not a matter of time, but a historical fact.
