President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of Belarusians not allowing their country to be drawn deeper into the war. According to REFORM.news, Zelenskyy addressed the population of Belarus directly, warning of the consequences of the country's military involvement in the conflict.
Zelenskyy directly appealed to Belarusians with a call to prevent Belarus's military participation in the war against Ukraine, distinguishing between the position of the Lukashenko regime and society itself. Kyiv fears that Minsk may move from providing territory to direct participation in combat operations on Russia's side.
If Belarus enters the war, Ukraine will face a threat from its northern border, which will complicate its military situation and may require the redeployment of additional troops from other sections of the front. For Belarus's citizens, escalation means the risk of direct military conflict on their territory and economic consequences from the expansion of sanctions.
