Behavior Of Neighbors Of Belarus Hostile, Russia Cannot Stay Silent - Kremlin

The behavior of countries surrounding Belarus is unpredictable and hostile, so Russia can not stay silent, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday.

"Belarus, just like us, is surrounded by countries that are very hostile.

Since we are a union state, naturally, Russia cannot leave Belarus alone. The actions of the neighbors are very, very unpredictable, unfriendly, so precautionary measures are definitely needed here," Peskov told reporters.
