Tertel: Any step to the territory of Belarus for destructive forces will be the last one

11 октября 2022

 The armed seizure of a district center in the territory of Belarus as a springboard for further development of the offensive -  from 100 to 300 fighters have been prepared for that by the foreign intelligence services in the territory of Ukraine. This statement was made by Chairman of the Committee of State Security Ivan Tertel to TV channel Belarus 1. 

According to Ivan Tertel, not only foreign instructors in Ukraine, but also in Poland and Lithuania are engaged in professional training of fighters. The West's plans do not change, the strategy changes, based on the military and political situation. All this is done in order to seize power and change the geopolitical course in our country.

Ivan Tertel, Chairman of the State Security Committee of Belarus:

There are other scenarios. They include preparations for a series of attacks on our territory, taking into account the fact that we are creating a joint grouping of troops with the Russian Federation. Committing terrorist acts on the railroad, and  terrorist acts on the way of our and our allies' troops movement. There are already calls in certain social networks. We know who is behind this. We know that foreign intelligence services are trying to distance themselves from this, actually helping the organizers in Poland, Lithuania, and Ukraine. We do not see Latvia there yet. Terrorist groups are being formed, supported directly by the special services of these countries. But we understand and know for sure that the CIA and other more powerful special services, which are behind the special services of the satellite countries, own and direct this situation and finance them.

People should understand that the Belarusian special services have operational information and are prepared for any turn of events. At the same time, we have a short conversation with the aggressors: the practice of suppressing terrorist attacks with firearms will be continued. Any approach to our territory for destructive forces will be the last. 

Ivan Tertel also emphasized that the West is considering the possibility of using tactical nuclear weapons, preparing a certain military infrastructure for this purpose in the neighboring countries in order to achieve long-term plans.

Ivan Tertel, Chairman of the State Security Committee of Belarus:

“We can say with confidence: if there is a high-quality mobilization, if the Russian army is saturated with equipment, if there are modern weapons, if the whole range of that experience of troop management that Russia has is applied, then it is clear that it will be a radical change from December to February according to our calculations.” 

"At the same time, the stakes are raised here because the West, according to our data that we extract from Western military and political circles, believes that it must not lose by any means. Therefore, among other things, they are discussing the possibility of using tactical nuclear weapons or using those groups that are created for direct aggression against our country and against our allies," said Tertel.
