Andrii Sybiha: Ukraine distinguishes between the Belarusian people and the Lukashenko regime
Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha made an important statement on the anniversary of the mass protests in Belarus. He emphasized that Ukraine clearly distinguishes between the Belarusian people and the current regime of Alexander Lukashenko, which supports Russia's aggression.
In his speech, the minister stressed that Ukrainians respect the aspirations of Belarusians to live in a free and democratic country. According to Sybiha, the Belarusian people's struggle for their rights and dignity resonates with Ukrainian society.
At the same time, official Kyiv continues to condemn the actions of the self-proclaimed authorities of Belarus. The Lukashenko regime provides the country's territory for Russian military operations, which makes it complicit in the full-scale war against Ukraine.
Ukrainian authorities emphasize that security in the region depends on Minsk ending its support for Russian aggression. Despite the complex political situation, Ukraine remains open to dialogue with those forces that advocate for the independence and European path of development for Belarus.
This statement reaffirms Ukraine's position regarding the importance of supporting democratic values in neighboring states. Kyiv continues to monitor the development of events in Belarus, hoping for the restoration of justice and peace in the region.
