The dog of Lukashenko has more rights than the citizens of Belarus – President of Ukraine 0 10

"So far, the white spitz of Lukashenko has more rights than the people of Belarus, unfortunately. There was a chance in 2020 to change this," he said in his speech.

In his speech, Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Belarus still has to exist as a "Russian governorate."

A meeting of the presidents of Lithuania, Ukraine, and Poland took place in Vilnius to commemorate the anniversary of the 1863–1864 uprising against Russia.

The Polish uprising of 1863–1864 (January Uprising) was a large-scale armed revolt in the Kingdom of Poland, Lithuania, and Belarus against the Russian Empire. The goal was to restore the Commonwealth within the borders of 1772. The uprising, caused by national oppression and social reasons (overlapping with the reforms of 1861), was suppressed by the troops by mid-1864.

Despite its defeat, the uprising contributed to the awakening of national consciousness among the peoples of the former Commonwealth.

In addition to assessing the situation in Belarus, Zelensky reiterated the readiness of the bilateral security guarantees agreement project between Kyiv and Washington.

"We expect from our partners the date and place where this document will be signed. Then this document must be ratified in the U.S. Congress and the Verkhovna Rada," Zelensky said.

It is worth noting that the president previously stated that this agreement could only be signed after the end of the war.

The second security guarantee, according to him, is EU membership and assistance from the "Coalition of the Willing," which includes Latvia. Zelensky said nothing about the readiness of these agreements.

Earlier, Politico reported that the U.S. refused to provide military guarantees to European troops in case they were deployed to Ukraine after the end of the war during negotiations in Abu Dhabi.
