SBU Major General Viktor Yagun claims that the participation of the Belarusian army in the war in Ukraine will destroy the last chance to preserve the autonomy and independence of Belarus.

He spoke about this on Espresso.

According to him, the majority of the Belarusian army does not want to fight.

However, Russia is now actively working in this direction, pushing for the mobilization of the population and the involvement of Belarusian military units in hostilities.  

At the same time, the general of the SBU noted that the Belarusian army would be of little use in the war, and its participation would pose a threat to Belarusian statehood.

"According to our information, the quality of this Belarusian military effort will be like a Trojan horse in the state of Russia.

And if the Belarusians take part in the war, then Lukashenka's last chance, the last shred of his independence and independence from Russia, will be destroyed.

And Lukashenko understands it the same way," says Viktor Yagun. 

He also predicted the time of the probable attack on Ukraine from the territory of the satellite country of the Russian Federation.

"When the Belarusians cross the border of Ukraine, and if it happens, it may be at the end of January or the beginning of February, then it will be the final decision, which will once and for all close such a phenomenon as the independence of Belarus for the near future," - stressed the ex-deputy head of the SBU .

In his opinion, the Russian military command will use Belarusian units as cannon fodder — in the first ranks of the offensive.

If they do not surrender, they will be destroyed.

Together with them, the last chance to protect Belarus as an independent state will be destroyed.

We will remind you that Russia has resolved all the organizational and legal aspects that make it possible to use a joint group with the Belarusian army for a new invasion of Ukraine.
