Terrified dictator Alexander Lukashenko has urged Russia and Ukraine to agree a peace deal to avoid the war spilling over into Belarus.
President Lukashenko, a key ally of Vladimir Putin, said he fears Kyiv's troops are now planning an incursion into his nation after they launched a cross-border offensive in Russia.
Thousands of Ukrainian soldiers smashed through Russia's western border on August 6 in a major embarrassment for Putin's top military brass.
Now in an interview with Russia state television, Lukashenko has said that only 'high-ranking people of American origin' wanted the Ukraine-Russia war to continue.
The West, he said, was encouraging Kyiv to fight because it wants Ukraine and Russia to 'destroy each other'.
Russia pledged on Thursday to beef up its border defences as hundreds of thousands of people were ordered to evacuate the western Kursk region.
Kyiv said its forces have advanced 22 miles into Russia since last week and continue to gain ground.
Lukashenko suggested in the interview, without providing evidence, that Kyiv could have plans to attack Belarus and Minsk would not allow Ukrainian troops to 'trample on our country'.

BS
Ukraine is not going to open yet a third front.
Luk is looking for an excuse to join the party.
How can Zelensky being doing what he’s doing, and what Belarus fears he may do, if he has no troops? I thought all the men in his country were mostly dead. This makes no sense.
Doesn’t want to be put out of the Dictator business ?
What Lukashenko fears is being strung up upside down like Mussolini.
Is he *really* terrified, or is this just journalistic coloring?
What Lukashenko fears is being strung up upside down like Mussolini.

BINGO
That would truly be a shame
What is China learning from all this ?
*What Lukashenko fears is being strung up upside down like Mussolini.

BINGO*
Think Fredo in The Godfather.
I’ve been thinking the big move would be if Russia moves into Belarus, if Lukashenko is tossed out. That’s when things will really heat up.
there is NO RELIABLE INFO AVAILABLE ANYWHERE !
NONE
ZERO ZILCH < NOTTA
If it isn't an outright lie or propaganda twist, it is heavily filtered by internet algorithm bots
But but but I thought the Russians were the evil invaders and the poor innocent Ukes were just minding their own business.
Lukeshenko never mobilized. He doesn’t dare put arms in the hands of the population at large.
If his small professional army were to be wiped out in an attack on Ukrainian forces, that would just make it all the easier for the Kremlin to move troops in and end the sovereignty of Belarus.
The problem for Russia is that they don’t have those troops anymore. Their most capable units have been mauled in the Ukraine war.

Take him out and then leave. It’s what we shouda done in Iraq.
But othr that , NONE , I just went through a nightmare trying to get info on a wildfire. It was no better than it wasin the 1970's , even worse, just more internet jibberish, and of course humans dont like to talk on phones anymore, click here instead, lots of bad/sketchy incomplete innacurate info , lots and lots of info on everything , take your pick, but its all unreliable garbage
ZEEPER FOLLIES PINGLIST!
(((PING!)))
... to be added to the best Zeeper-provided entertainment since Paul Shanklin parodies, ping me bro.
Belarusian troops will fight like the Italians. In other words, they'll do nothing. But Putin put his nukes in Belarus.
These drama-queen headlines are akin to what people used to see on the covers of rags on racks at the grocery store checkout line.
