Hello DI!
Russian and Belarusian media are full of reports about an attempt to shoot down the helicopter of the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko.
Lukashenko called the attack on the presidential helicopter a pretext for starting a war. The words of the head of the republic are reported by the BelTA agency.
According to Lukashenko, on the morning of October 4, he began to receive reports about two drones approaching his helicopter. The President of Belarus was supposed to fly to one of the regions of the republic. Because of this, the flight had to be postponed by one hour. Social networks are filled with a video in which the sounds of a UAV are first heard at night, followed by a bright flash and a strong explosion.
"Of course, they [drone operators] see the helicopter. It is big, it is not a drone. (...) Therefore, I am not particularly worried about this, as people say. And then, you know: shooting down the president’s helicopter is a war that Ukrainians don’t need,” Lukashenko shared.
Assassinations and attempted assassinations of heads of state who are unpopular with the West are, unfortunately, already becoming a tradition.
Thank you.

Lukashenko is not the legitimate president of Belarus.
Before Lukashenko looks to Ukraine for potential assassins, maybe he should look around him inside Belarus.

I read in the news today that these were Russian drones. But yeah I know... Western media lie, only the Russian ones speak the "truth." But consider this:
First, it's not the first time Belarus has problems with Russian drones. They even shot down some of them recently.
Second, it's not in the interest of Ukraine to drag Belarus into this war but it sure as hell is in the interest of Russia.

Legitimacy is given to presidents not by the wishes of hostile states, but by the people who elect presidents through a democratic procedure. Lukashenko is an absolutely legitimate president, as he was elected by the people of Belarus. But in Ukraine there is no legitimate power at all. The powers of the president expired in May. According to the Constitution, if there are no elections, the powers of the president are transferred to the chairman of parliament. But now the term of office of parliament has also expired, and there are no elections. Now Ukraine is a classic dictatorship.

Do you have any evidence that these are Russian drones? President Lukashenko said they are Ukrainian.

1 - Lukeshenko cheated in a rigged 'election' and isn't really the ruler.
2 - Lukeshenko is Moscows puppet.
3 - His nickname is "Europe's last dictator".
4 - If the story is true, it was probably a hit from within the country. Typical Moscow mentality to try to blame Ukraine or the Jews. They always pick one or the other to blame for their own problems.
5 - I DO NOT CARE.
make russia small again

These were shahed drones from Iran. Guess who uses them.

Yeah, he was legitimately elected...NOT! If the election was so legitimate, why then does the UK, the European Union, the United States, Canada, Norway and Japan all have sanctions against the Belarus government for "rigged elections"?? Beyond the sanctions, neither Poland nor Lithuania recognize Lukashenko as the legitimate president either. Not to mention the vast majority of the Belarusan people.
Oh, and I don't give a flying foo-fa about Ukraine. Putin can have it...IF he can take it. Your OP was about Lukashenko and Belarus. Stay on-topic.
We're going to ship the Biden cartel to Ukraine after the elections. He'll fix everything (well, maybe not without all that taxpayer money, but you can still have him).

I also read that the Drones were Shahed drones, aren't these the ones supplied to Russia from Iran? Maybe Russia have had more wayward munitions/drones, which have been a problem before.
I see you're already upto your propaganda tricks, that didn't take you long did it??

Quote:War in Ukraine: Russian drones shot down over BelarusSince July, Moscow has regularly violated the airspace of its Belarusian ally to attack Ukraine with Shahed drones. Two were intercepted on Wednesday night by the Minsk army.
The war in Ukraine is getting dangerously close to Belarus, Moscow's number one ally, although its troops have so far cautiously stayed out of the conflict. On the night of Wednesday, September 4, Russia launched another massive kamikaze drone attack using Shahed drones against Ukraine. Eight of them flew over Belarusian airspace, two of which were shot down by Belarusian forces near Gomel, 30 kilometers from the Ukrainian border, the military monitoring group Belarusian Hajun Project reported on Thursday. Moscow Times
Quote:Belarus’ Defense Ministry said early Thursday that it destroyed several drones after they violated the country’s airspace overnight.
“Late last night, on September 5, a violation of Belarusian airspace was detected, reportedly involving unmanned aerial vehicles,” the ministry said in a statement posted on Telegram.
“A decision was made to neutralize the threat. Prompt actions by air defense forces resulted in the destruction of all violating targets,” the statement added.
"Denial is a common tactic that substitutes deliberate ignorance for thoughtful planning."

Why do you say that, has Hilary Clinton moved to Belarus?
Attack other countries about their issues when your country is worse
How is Trumps bullet wound coming on, my money is it was a paid democrat delivery from a CIA operative, state sanctioned

1 Biden cheated…
2 Biden is everyone’s puppet
3 Biden doesn’t need a nickname, people feel legitimately sorry for him and his situation
4 Trump was shot at by his own
5 I do care because unfortunately my country is tied to the economy of the train wreck of the USA and come under the same puppeteer as the US,
Australia should join BRICS
