“Direct military assistance” – not from so many countries. We already remembered Iran [который поставляет, в частности дроны-камикадзе]. Remained Belarus, the regime [находящегося в стране при власти с 1994 года Александра] Lukashenko. […] There is information about North Korea. In principle, the list is not so big. Then the stories about the “gray” cooperation, about the so-called “gaskets” and many other things begin,” he said.
The representative of the GUR noted that the facts of the transfer of ballistic missiles by Iran to Russia have not yet been recorded, and “Ukraine and the coalition of partners are doing everything possible to prevent this from happening.”
Regarding Belarus, Yusov said that for Russia in this country “all possibilities are open both for the repair of equipment, and for restoration, re-preservation.”
“In principle, Belarus is actively cooperating in this regard, although the main goal for the regime [президента страны-террориста РФ Владимира] Putin – to draw Belarus into a full-scale ground operation, the war of Russia against Ukraine. It didn’t happen and there are no signs that it will happen in the near future,” he explained.
War of Russia against Ukraine. Main (updated)
Russia invaded Ukraine on a full scale on February 24, 2022.
The aggressor state uses at least two types of Iranian UAVs in Ukraine – Shahed-136 kamikaze drones and Mohajer-6 multi-purpose UAVs. The Russians repainted the Shahed in their own colors and named it “Geran-2”.
On Dec. 22, the White House said that last month North Korea supplied infantry weapons and missiles to Russia for use by the Russian PMC Wagner, a recognized international criminal organization. The United States believes that North Korean weapons will not change the dynamics of hostilities in Ukraine, but fear that North Korea plans to supply Russia with more weapons. The United Kingdom adheres to the same assessment.
The DPRK denied the supply of weapons to Russia, Iran claimed that the supplies werebut we are talking about “a limited number of drones” and deliveries “a few months” before the beginning of February-2022.
On February 24, 2022, Russian troops entered Ukraine, including from Belarus. Belarus actually provided its territory to the occupying country as a military base, including for inflicting missile and air strikes on Ukraine.
Lukashenka admitted that Belarus takes part in Russia’s war against Ukraine, but allegedly “does not kill anyone and does not send its military anywhere.”
On April 1, 2023, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated that the leadership of Belarus continues to support Russian aggression against Ukraine. In particular, units of the Russian army are trained on the territory of Belarus.
