Today, the Czech capital hosted a summit of NATO foreign ministers. Before the summit began, Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis answered whether Ukraine could also hit targets in Belarus.
Russian military facilities must be destroyed
Russian troops were stationed on the territory of Belarus from the very beginning of the full-scale invasion. From there they attacked the northern regions of Ukraine.
Currently, Russian troops are stationed in training camps and for other purposes. However, there is a hypothetical possibility of transferring enemy troops from Russia to Belarus to launch new strikes on Ukraine.
The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Lithuania Gabrielus Landsbergis, commenting on the question of journalists about whether Ukraine can strike on the territory of Belarus, said that if Russia moves military facilities to another place, then "the selection of targets must be moved".
If Russia, fearing that the targets may be fired on in Russia, may move them somewhere else, I believe that the selection of targets should also be moved.
