On March 20, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko stated that Washington has no intention of distancing Belarus from Russia following his meeting with a U.S. delegation led by Special Envoy John Cole.
BelTA reported on March 20 that during the exchange, Lukashenko said: “I have outlined my point of view, my approaches. Including in this regard, when they asked questions about Russia and China. But I warned them: these are not just our allies, they are states close to us. And I want Americans to take this into account. We must give them their due, they take this into account.”
