Zelensky pleads for peace before Putin's 'final push'? Russian ally Belarus makes big claim

As Russia mounts its offensive against Ukraine, Putin's closest ally Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said that he had been asked to conclude a non-aggression pact with Ukraine. Belta state news agency reported that Lukashenko disclosed the alleged offer to a meeting of government and law enforcement officials. Lukashenko also accused Ukraine of allowing its territory to be used by the West to train and arm militants who could destabilise the situation in Belarus. Western and Ukrainian officials have warned of a major Russian offensive in the beginning of spring and they fear that Russia could use Belarus as a launch pad to target northern Ukraine. Belarus allowed Russia to use its territory to send troops into Ukraine in February last year.
