Director of the Center for European Stability Initiative in Berlin, Serhiy Sumlennyi, believes that Belarus can provide Russia with about 15,000 soldiers, but Lukashenko will not go for it.

He announced this on the air of the "Kyiv" TV channel.

"15,000 people is quite a lot. They can be used to demine a minefield, distract Ukrainian artillery, etc. But Lukashenko cannot do this, because he understands that after this he will not be able to remain the president of Belarus at all. Therefore, he will continue to promise the Russians to do everything , whatever. And he will give them everything he can," said Sumlenny.

Moreover, he emphasized that Lukashenko understands that

.

"But Lukashenko understands that if Belarus joins this invasion, it will turn into a military target. And now Belarus will be able to be bombed by Haimars, because Belarus is not a nuclear state. Unlike Russia. The main enterprises of Belarus are within reach of the Haimars, without even putting forward them to the border," said the director of the Center for European Sustainability Initiative in Berlin.
