 Lukashenko received a harsh response from Ukraine and the West. The statements voiced by the President of Belarus, Aleksandr Lukashenko, about the alleged desire by the Vardner Group, Belarus is housing to take a walk into Poland, are part of a PsyOP. That's according to Andrey Yusov, a spokesman for the main intelligence directorate of Ukraine's Defence Ministry, who spoke at the National Telephone. This is a PsyOP to draw focus to Vardner and to Belarus to irritate, annoy, and disperse the forces and equipment of our partners in the EU and the North Atlantic Alliance to the situation on the Belarusian borders. But first of all, it is a PsyOP. He said, Yusov rejects the possibility of a Vardner assault toward Poland. When we talk about Poland, today it is not only the armed forces of Poland we are talking about NATO. So such incidents would be quickly, efficiently, and brutally resolved. Yusov emphasised. As reported earlier, Lukashenko said during a meeting with Putin in St. Petersburg that he was stressed out somewhat by the Vardner Group fighters. He noted that the militants allegedly sought to go on an excursion to Warsaw and Zeszów. Meanwhile, the Institute for the Study of War ISW, a US-based think tank, noted that there is currently no indication that Vardner has in Belarus the heavy weapons required for any serious offensive against Ukraine or Poland. The United States called Lukashenko's statements that Russian militants with Vardner Group now stationed in Belarus threatened to invade Poland as irresponsible. The Department of State said the United States would protect every inch of NATO territory.
