Alexander Lukashenko said on Saturday that if Belarus were to come under “attack”, its army would respond immediately. The West has speculated over the level of involvement of Belarus in Russia’s ongoing “special military operation” in Ukraine since late February.
Lukashenko said his state stood fully behind Russia in its invasion as part of its commitment to a “union state” with Moscow.
But he has previously suggested his own armed forces will not themselves enter Ukraine, pointing to Minsk’s potential role of helping to create a peace deal instead.
The Belarusian President was, however, clear that his country would not tolerate attacks from Western countries.
He said: “Less than a month ago, I gave orders to the units of the armed forces to target what can now be called the decision-making centres in capitals…
“Don't touch us – and we won't touch you.”

Good for him.
Brussels, Berlin, and Bonn would make great targets, but Davos far and away is the juiciest.
F him. Don’t we tell these people their death is assured if they even think about it?
Maybe your house would be a good one.
Stupid remarks.

If the elites of the deep states become targets, they might become pro peace instead of funding wars around the globe.
Xi has one of those too.
Yawn
Now that's a "chilling warning" if I ever saw one!
(\sarc ;>)
“Don’t touch us – and we won’t touch you.”
Nothing new in that, has been the rule in warfare since Adam and Eve.
Maybe he thinks that the Biden administration wants to get a hot war going to distract attention from his contrived disasters.
"Great targets?!" For Belarusian missiles?! Absurd!
If Lukashenko were to try anything like that, he would be reduced to a greasy stain on the map within the hour.

BINGO!!
“Fire for effect”.
America doesn’t have a dog in this fight, FRiend. It’s the Euros versus the Russians.
Here we go with the daily dose of depravity from the deranged FR misfits.
Most americans don’t have the slightest idea what Minsk II was, and furthermore proudly don’t even care. In hindsight, that’s gonna look like a pretty damn good deal. Unfortunately, it’s now off the table.
For those of us in Rio Linda, Minsk II was destroyed by dirty tricks from the US state dept.
How is that “chilling” ? He said he would respond if a western country attacked his country, seems more than reasonable.
If NATO is attacked by Belarus, NATO can respond by attacking Belarus only. Doesn’t need to involve Russia. At least at first.
(Some people here are taking the Ukraine thing way too seriously.)
Great view of Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.
