Łukašenka urges Ukraine to accept Russia’s “peace” deal
September 26, Pozirk. Alaksandar Łukašenka has urged Ukraine’s leadership to accept Russia’s “peace” proposals, speaking at a press conference after his meeting with Vladimir Putin in Moscow today.
The Belarusian leader, known for his optimistic remarks about Russia’s military campaign in Ukraine—including his claim that Russia could capture Ukraine in three days—did not specify the proposals but asserted that they had been approved by Washington.
If Ukraine refuses, it will be worse for the country, he said. “They will lose Ukraine. They should have stopped earlier—then all the east would still be Ukrainian, except for Crimea. But they didn’t stop and lost the east. If they don’t stop now, they will lose the whole of Ukraine.”
His comments came just two days after US President Donald Trump declared that Kyiv could “win all of Ukraine back in its original form.”
Posting on his Truth Social platform, Trump said Ukraine could restore “the original borders from where this war started” with the support of Europe and NATO, given the mounting pressure on Russia’s economy. His statement followed talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, held after Trump addressed the UN General Assembly in New York on Tuesday.
Łukašenka also insisted that Putin keeps no secrets from him, noting that he had been invited to hear a report from the Russian General Staff.
“Listen, the Russians have captured nearly all major settlements along the fronts, especially in some areas. From a geographical perspective, what comes next? It will be difficult to stop the Russian army,” he said.
Łukašenka added that he would like to meet President Zelensky before any potential talks between Kyiv and Moscow.
“The leaders of the three Slavic countries should sit down and agree to end this incomprehensible war. If we fail, it will be bad for everyone,” he said.
