Zelensky Reacts to Lukashenko's Apology

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a recent interview that Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko apologized for the missile strikes on Ukraine originating from Belarus during the early days of Russia's invasion. Lukashenko attempted to deflect responsibility, claiming he was not in control and that Russian President Vladimir Putin was the one launching the missiles. In response, Zelensky condemned Lukashenko as complicit in the war, likening him to Putin, and noted Lukashenko's suggestion to retaliate by striking the Mozyr Oil Refinery in Belarus. Despite his apologies, Zelensky emphasized that Belarus actively supported the invasion by providing its territory to Russian forces. This revelation highlights the intricate geopolitical dynamics and the complicity of Belarus in the ongoing conflict. The international community continues to grapple with the implications of Belarus's role in the war against Ukraine.
