“The group of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is stationed in Belarus with the number of about 10,200 servicemen and cannot carry out the task of a repeated attack on the territory of our state,” Deineko said.

According to Serhii Deineko, the Intelligence Service of the Ministry of Defense, the State Border Service and operative-investigative units monitor the situation on the territory of Belarus every day. They are also helped by “unofficial assistants”. All report that the Russians have no “real opportunity” to attack.
