President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has convened a meeting of the Security Council, reports BELTA.
A number of issues aimed at ensuring the national security of Belarus have been submitted for consideration at the event.
"The tense situation in the world and directly at our borders, sanctions pressure do not allow us to be absolutely calm and confident in the future," said Alexander Lukashenko. - NATO countries are persistently promoting their expansion policy, building up military presence around Belarus, constantly conducting provocative exercises on our borders, and other actions," he said.
"They justify their actions by some threats, allegedly coming from the territory of Belarus. The leadership of Poland and the Baltic States accuse Belarus of some mythical aggressive intentions, which never existed and can't exist," added Alexander Lukashenko.
