Last week, a reporter from one of Germany’s highest-circulating dailies Bild, Julian Ropcke, tweeted that Belarus deployed its troops to the country’s borders with Ukraine.
“Dictator Lukashenko is also moving the Belarusian army towards the Ukrainian border (here 60 km north of the border of Rivne Oblast),” he said on Twitter.
It’s also important to note that the Biden administration on Monday renewed United States sanctions on nine state-owned companies in Belarus for human rights violations by the regime of President Alexander Lukashenko.
