Belarus president Lukashenko has asked Putin and Zelenskyy to put an immediate end to the fighting in Ukraine. The question is, does Belarus really want peace - or are they serving in a puppet role for Russia to help Putin achieve his goals?

For Ukriane, negotiating via Lukashenko would be like asking your mother-in-law to mediate your divorce.
-
Never trust Lukashenko. We remember what part Belarus played in the early days of the invasion
-
All I'll say is know who else went through Lukashenko for negotiations? Prigozhin. And it certainly didn't end up well for him.
-
Belarus doesn't want Russia to end the war. Belarus wants Ukraine to stop defending itself. Big difference.
-
Most of the attack was launched from Belarus, and hence they should bear some responsibility for this invasion.
-
Ukraine would never accept a ceasefire with Russia. Putin would almost certainly use the ceasefire to pull in more resources to the frontline. I mean we're talking about a guy who was playing chicken with one of the largest nuclear facilities in the world, by positioning troops and equipment there (which is illegal) and using it as a shield against Ukrainian strikes.
-
Maybe something to do with all those Belarussians training and fighting for Ukraine who intend to free Belarus too.
-
A Victory for Ukraine is a Victory for the World! Take care of each other, be safe and God bless. Peace
-
Lukeshenka was just as sure of a quick victory. But is now worried that Belarus will get dragged into this mess.
-
I met Belaruski anarchists and others during Euromaidan in Kyiv. Even drank tea with them!! They fully supported Ukraine's revolution against rascki control!!! Слава захисникам України!! 🟦🟨
-
If Lukashenka's starting to back down, that's bad news for Putin, and good news for the world.
-
The last scenario is the most likely, the Belarusians don't want to be drawn into a war against an old ally....a dictator won't want to be ousted by a popular uprising.
-
Looks like Putin's house of cards might finally be coming down.
-
Hmmm, I think this is more to put pressure on Ukraine than on Russia. After all, it's calling for ceasefire and negotiations, which benefits Russia more than it does Ukraine. It would either end things either as is (which means Russia takes a significant portion of Ukraine), or to create some breathing room for Russia to recover.
-
I think, Putin failing at the beginning to take Kyiv with a lot of veteran troops, that basically all have been wiped out, had hit him so hard that the rest didn't work out either. He used his hammer without an anvil and managed to break it in the process.
-
If ive learnt one thing from russia its that words mean nothing its their actions you watch! I wouldnt trust them or belarus until they leave or are pushed out of ukraine
-
“Oh no, our actions have consequences. That’s not fair.”
-
Icarus, Ukraine refused to give ground since Russia first attempt all the way back in 1992. This war would end only one way, Russia leaving and Ukraine in NATO.
-
All good info. I wish more people in USA 🇺🇸 would watch this.
