Minsk concerned over “escalation of the situation” in Middle East
February 28, Pozirk. Minsk is closely monitoring “escalation of the situation between Israel and Iran, which has also affected friendly Gulf countries,” the Belarusian foreign ministry has said in a statement following reports of strikes on Iran by Israel and the United States.
