President Emmanuel Macron claimed on Saturday evening to his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko that this “demands the withdrawal of Russian troops from its soil as soon as possible“, and who are engaged in the invasion of Ukraine, reported the Elysée.
“The President of the Republic made a point of denouncing the seriousness of a decision which would consist in authorizing Russia to deploy nuclear weapons on Belarusian soil. The President of the Republic asked the President of Belarus to demand as soon as possible the withdrawal of Russian troops from his soil, which are leading to a unilateral and unjust war and stressed the need to cooperate with the international community to conduct operations aid workers to the aid of the Ukrainian people“, writes the Elysée in a press release.
