But ready to come: Crimea de jure is not the territory of Russia-Lukashenko

According to the President of Belarus, he now sees the need for his visit to the occupied peninsula, but promised to come there, if necessary. At the same time, Minsk intends to continue cooperation with the occupied regions of Ukraine. President of Belarus Oleksandr Lukashenko is ready to visit a temporarily occupied Crimean peninsula if necessary, but recognizes that this territory is not legally owned by Russia. He stated this in an interview with the Russian media "Izvestia".

According to him, he has decided for a long time, and if necessary, he will come to Crimea, which has been under the temporary control of the Russian Federation for more than 10 years. At the same time, he promised to invite a journalist who asked him this question, with him to Crimea when it happened. "Well, what was the need today or yesterday to go to Crimea? I marked my position at the beginning. I just repeat what I said at the very beginning Alexander Lukashenko.

Separately, the president of Belarus added that the main problem is allegedly that the issue of Crimea is regulated only unilaterally and the international community does not recognize the peninsula in Russian. At the same time, Moscow is not interested in the position of the world and Alexander Lukashenko noted that he would have done the same. Minsk also continues cooperation with the occupied regions of Ukraine.

"By the way, the leadership of Ukraine and the military for it are very reproached that these Belarusian organizations that cooperate with these, as they say, are captured by the regions, will fall under sanctions. So they are under sanctions. What is needed by Donbass and Crimea, if we have it, we sell it. Alexander Lukashenko summarized.
