January 16, Pozirk. <\/strong>Vadzim Kaban\u010duk,the Belarusian opposition\u2019s security chief, dismissed allegations by Belarusian officials that radical exiled opponents are planning to attack Belarus as a lie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of acknowledging real problems facing the country, its Security Council head Alaksandar Valfovi\u010d is creating myths about the “seizure of regions” and “foreign militants,” he said. “This is nothing but a lie aimed at justifying the existence of the police state,” the United Transitional Cabinet\u2019s press office quoted him as saying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He noted that security officials \u201care feeding the dictator with disinformation\u201d to \u201cget stars on their shoulder straps.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valfovi\u010d’s remarks are “part of a propaganda game,” Kaban\u010duk said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We see that in the run-up to so-called electoral events, which are important for the regime, the secret services regularly exploit issues of sustainability, security, stability, calm and ‘external enemies’ trying to destroy all of this,” he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valfovi\u010d made the accusations in an interview published by SB. Belarus Segodnya <\/em>today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He repeated the claim that external forces consider involving \u201cextremist groups in an armed operation to seize one or several border regions of Belarus, declare them \u2018free\u2019 and deploy a Western \u2018peacekeeping\u2019 contingent there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He referred to a command and coordination center called Paspalitaje Ru\u0161e\u0144nie allegedly created in Poland to train militants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to him, Ukrainian and Western intelligence agencies are also involved in the training of \u201cBelarusian radicals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Armed Forces of Ukraine use these units in combat operations against Russian troops, so that Belarusian extremists gain combat experience,\u201d Valfovi\u010d said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state-run newspaper published his allegation one week before the January 21-26 presidential poll widely seen as a stage-managed ritual to extend Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka rule by another five-year term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Belarusian strongman made similar claims, unsupported by evidence, on the polling say in the February 2024 parliamentary and local elections. He claimed that opponents were plotting to capture the towns of Kobryn and Ma\u0142aryta in the Brest region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
