Putin’s spokesman drops hammer: Zelensky poked the bear’s den with ‘one week’ deadline to Belarus?

Tensions between Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia have escalated after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky issued a stark warning over military equipment allegedly being used to direct attacks near the Belarus border. Zelensky urged Minsk to remove the systems within a week, saying, "If he doesn't, we will." The Kremlin swiftly condemned the remarks as aggressive interference in Belarusian sovereignty, while signaling that the issue could be discussed during an upcoming Putin-Lukashenko meeting. The dispute comes as Ukraine also faces uncertainty over potential MiG-29 fighter transfers from Poland, adding another layer to the regional security challenge.
