No threat of invasion to Ukraine from Belarus at the moment – intelligence chief
The relevant statement was made by Chief of the Main Intelligence Directorate at the Ukrainian Defense Ministry Kyrylo Budanov during a nationwide telethon, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“At this stage, there is no threat on the Belarusian side. I can say this with absolute confidence. The situation is completely under control,” Budanov told.
The Ukrainian intelligence is aware of Belarusian reserve duty training exercises, border enhancement procedures and a whole range of military-oriented actions.
“But, they are not aimed at conducting hostilities against Ukraine at this stage. When such thoughts arise, we will immediately know about them and will take appropriate actions,” Budanov stressed.
