<\/a>In his traditional daily speech to the population published on Telegram,\u00a0the president maintained that \u201cthe day before there was quite unusual activity in some sections of the border between Ukraine and Belarus, on the Belarusian side\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\u201cWe are documenting everything carefully and keeping the situation under control.

<\/a>\"All those who try to get involved in any aggressive action against Ukraine must understand it,\"<\/strong> he warned Minsk.<\/p>\n\n\nOn April 23rd, Zelensky said that he does not want Belarus, which allowed Russia in February 2022 to use its territory to move equipment and soldiers to Ukraine to invade it from the north, to be involved in the \"sick\" ideas of the Russian Federation.\n\n\n

<\/a>\u201cRegarding the threat of an attack from Belarus, look, the Russians have many sick and fanciful ideas<\/strong>. That's why I really don't want Belarus to be dragged into these fanciful ideas and turn them into a terrible reality\u201d, Zelensky stated in statements to the media.<\/p>\n\n\nOn April 29, Zelensky signed a decree to impose new sanctions against entities in Belarus.\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a signal to many of our partners that it is worth exerting pressure to reduce the level of this war and its intensity,\u201d<\/strong> he indicated then.<\/p>\n\n\nOn April 1, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said, according to the Telegram channel close to the Presidency, Pul Pervogo, that \"there can be no time of peace\" and that Belarus is \"preparing for war,\" although he did not say against whom or what was the reason for his statement.

\u201cWe don't want war. But the army exists precisely for that: if suddenly someone decides to speak to us and look at us through the sights of a gun, we will respond. We are preparing for it\u201d<\/strong>, he pointed out.<\/p>\n\n\nZelensky emphasized this Saturday the importance of maintaining good relations with Slovakia after speaking with Prime Minister Robert Fico, whom the Kremlin expects at the military parade of the Soviet Victory Day over Nazi Germany and who has blocked community decisions on Ukraine.\n\n\n

\u201cIt is necessary to maintain strong relations between our states, and we are both interested in this,\u201d<\/strong> Zelensky noted in a message on his Telegram account after speaking with Fico.<\/p>\n\n\nAccording to Zelensky, the Slovak Prime Minister conveyed Slovakia's support for Ukraine's accession to the European Union (EU) and its willingness to share its experience in the process, which it went through until becoming a member state in 2004.\n\nThe Ukrainian head of state, who said they both discussed the possibility of meeting in person soon, invited Fico to Kyiv and thanked him for his invitation to travel to Bratislava.\n\nFico is expected to visit Moscow first, as he is one of the guests of Russian President Vladimir Putin at the traditional Victory Day parade in Red Square, which is held every year on May 9.\n\nThe Baltic states do not allow him to fly over their airspace, so Fico will have to take a wide detour to get to Moscow.\n\nYou can also read:\n\nThe conversation between Zelensky and the Slovakian leader, who, along with Hungary, has on different occasions blocked sanctions against Russia and aid for Ukraine, took place after the recent resumption of the supply of Russian oil through Ukraine via the Druzhba pipeline.\n\nThe pipeline, which carries Russian crude to Slovakia and Hungary, was damaged last January by attacks from Russia and its resumption was one of the conditions for the release of the 90 billion euros in community aid for Ukraine adopted last December and for the adoption of the twentieth package of sanctions against Moscow.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
