Belarus president blames crisis in Europe for lack of peace in Ukraine

Belarus president blames crisis in Europe for lack of peace in UkraineMINSK, 28 September (BelTA) – The inability to establish peace in Ukraine indicates the gravest kind of a crisis in Europe. Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko made the statement as he met with participants of the plenary assembly of the Council of European Bishops’ Conferences (CCEE) on 28 September, BelTA has learned.

The head of state said: “Our inability to put things in order in our own house is a dreadful disaster. It means Europe is suffering from the gravest crisis.”

“We are talking about Ukraine. What is going on in Ukraine is a disaster. But our inability to stop the war is an even greater disaster. We cannot give hope for a future not only to young people of the beautiful country of Ukraine. We also deprive the middle generation and the elder one of every kind of life and hope,” said Alexander Lukashenko.
