Russian Official Warns of Plot to Overthrow Belarusian Government
A high-ranking Russian official is warning that Belarusians who are fighting on Ukraine’s side against Russia might attempt to overthrow their own government.
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin told Georgian TV network RTIV that the rhetoric of “Belarusian nationalist formations” fighting as part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Donbas region “has become significantly tougher.”
“The leaders and commanders of these cutthroat mercenaries openly say that in the future they plan to use their combat experience to forcefully overthrow the current Belarusian leadership,” Galuzin said.
“In this regard, one cannot rule out the possible transfer of such sabotage groups to the [Belarusian] Republic.”
