February 23, Pozirk<\/em>. <\/strong>Russian President Vladimir Putin’s geopolitical task is to subdue and control Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Armenia and Moldova, prominent Ukrainian journalist Dmytro Gordon told Ukraine’s 24tv.ua <\/em>yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukraine had no chance of joining NATO therefore Putin wants to conquer it and restore the Soviet-like empire, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moscow’s goals have not changed and should Ukraine fall, Belarus would become part of Russia in that very second, Gordon noted. Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka is still in power thanks to Ukraine, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gordon interviewed \u0141uka\u0161enka a few days before the contested 2020 presidential election. The Belarusian ruler assured the journalist that he would not allow Russia to attack Ukraine via Belarus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the 2020 political crisis in Belarus, Gordon criticized \u0141uka\u0161enka on many occasions, including for his support of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Authorities in Minsk blocked access to Gordon’s online outlets for Belarusian users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
