лукашенко,пушилін

Ukrainian Foreign Ministry decided to summon Ukraine’s Ambassador to Republic of Belarus, Ihor Kyzym, for consultations.

It is informed by Censor.NЕТ referring to MFA press office.

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has condemned the meeting between Alexander Lukashenko, who seized power in Belarus, and Denis Pushilin, calling it an "attempt to legitimize" the representative of the Russian occupation administration in Donetsk.

"We consider the meeting with the representative of the Russian occupation administration, who is hiding from Ukrainian investigation for committing serious crimes and is under Ukrainian and international sanctions, to be another blatant unfriendly act on the part of the Republic of Belarus aimed at supporting the aggressor state of the Russian Federation," the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

It is also noted that Minsk should refrain from such destructive steps and stop supporting Russia's aggressive war against Ukraine.
