Opinion: Belarusians do not view Ukrainians as enemies
Andrei Krivosheev, the Director General of the Minsk-Novosti news agency, Chairman of the Belarusian Union of Journalists, shed light on how Ukrainian media-terrorist regime operates and spreads over
In his talk with the Belarus 1 TV channel, Mr. Krivosheev noted that Ukrainians are not the enemy of Belarus and its people, “Meanwhile, the regime that has formed near Belarus is obviously media-terrorist, and the Kiev authorities have proved this more than once. Let me remind you that people were detained in 2020 – including the case of Avtukhovich and anarchists. They were transferred from Ukraine, where they were trained and enjoyed support – including on the part of Ukrainian security forces and deputies. Actually, that was happening before the start of the special military operation. Those people were engaged into transporting explosives and weapons for silent shooting here, focusing on terrorist attacks and intimidation.”
The expert added that the Ukrainian media-terrorist regime is expanding over the years, “It is setting anti-records for the danger it poses to all its neighbours. Initially, they killed only their own journalists, and we can recall the shooting of Oles Buzina in the centre of Kiev. All city residents, all Ukrainians know who did that. Murderers were released from prison to the hooting of neo-Nazi scumbags, and a series of terrorist attacks was organised later. Unfortunately, some of them – against Russian journalists and politicians – were successful. Dasha Dugina died, she was a beautiful and bright lady, a journalist, a philosopher and an expert. Fortunately, assassination attempts on other colleagues – Vladimir Soloviev, Margarita Simonyan – have been prevented.”
Mr. Krivosheev stated that had been unpleasantly offended by the comments of some Belarusians to the film screened on the Belarus 1 TV channel about a Ukrainian spy (known as Mongoose) who transferred weapons and explosives to Belarus to organise terrorist attacks.
“Some people take terrorist threats for granted – admitting that terrorists are close to us, virtually next door. It seems to me that such a position should not be allowed. The existence of an openly aggressive terrorist regime next to us should not be perceived as the norm. On the one hand, this is a challenge to our security. It is absolutely clear why we need both the National Security Concept and the updated Military Doctrine. On the other hand, it's like a virus that spreads metastases. Recall how the assassination attempts on Grigory Azarenok and other Belarusian journalists were organised, though these people stay not in the Ukrainian state. Recall the attack on Belarusian diplomats in London. The metastases of the Ukrainian terrorist threats are spreading all over the European Union. The process of fascistization is underway, and it is dangerous both for the EU citizens and for us," Mr. Krivosheev concluded.
