Minsk-Sana

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said today that the actions of Western countries such as turning countries into a testing ground for weapons and bringing other countries into NATO put the world on the brink of global conflict.

"Individual countries have been turned into arenas for the destruction of old Western weapons, testing of new Western weapons, and after Finland joined the ranks of NATO and Sweden is ready to do so, we have once again witnessed the expansion of the NATO bloc," Lukashenko was quoted by the Novosti news agency as saying, noting that "this kind of action puts the world on the brink of a comprehensive and very dangerous global conflict."

"The West is escalating international tension and acknowledging by the voices of its politicians that it is preparing for war despite the rapid deterioration in living standards and economic prospects."
