Not popular in the Kremlin: Belarus leader can replace Putin - diplomat

About it on April 13 wrote the newspaper Daily Express. The media writes that as Alexander Lukashenko depends on Vladimir Putin, the defeat of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Ukraine can lead to his fall. Moreover, even with Russia's victories, according to some experts, the situation of Belarus leader remains open because the politician has never been popular in the Kremlin.

"The defeat of Russia in Ukraine will significantly weaken Putin and he will no longer be able to save his dictator. It can give the courage to Belarus once again to try their hand at the overthrow of Lukashenko," says Vlad Kobets Executive Director of the Analytical Center "ISANS".

According to him, although two leaders seem loved ones, their relationships have been stretched throughout history, to a large extent because of Alexander Lukashenko's unstable behavior and his / her willingness to act openly as a dictator. In addition, the current leader of Belarus was spoken by American diplomat Eric Stephen Edelman and President "Freedom House" David Kramer.

"Although victory in Ukraine may not lead to the fall of Putin, it can open the door to finally solve the problem of Lukashenko. It is a long time to go to the last dictator of Europe," they say. We will remind, on April 10, Alexander Lukashenko asked for the head of the Ministry of Defense Sergei Shoiga "Protection from the event". He complained about the alleged non -compliance with the United States with the conditions of the Budapest Memorandum.

States only "heat up aggression" against Minsk, confident Lukashenko. We also informed that on April 6, analysts at the American Institute for War Study (ISW) stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted more power over Belarus and has already found an instrument for this. The organization's report states that Putin and Lukashenko discussed the issues of security, culture and economy during a meeting of the Higher State Council of the Union State.
