In the event of a military clash, the parties will consider an attack on one of them as an act of aggression against the Union State,” the politician commented.
In the fall, Russia and Belarus will hold the Zapad-2025 strategic exercise on Belarusian territory. In 2022, Belarus “has already become a platform for invading Ukraine under the guise of exercises,” Kabančuk stressed.
