Belarusian military is negative about getting involved in war against Ukraine - Tsikhanouskaya’s adviser Viačorka

He said this on Espreso TV.

"We have a lot of volunteers who collect this information, we also have contacts in the Belarusian Armed Forces who leak information, and we have a monitoring group called Belarusian Hajun. If you want to transfer a significant number of troops to Belarusian territory, it takes at least 2-3 days. And as a rule, the railroad guerrillas who work, will know this in advance when there is a massive transfer of troops or equipment. So far, the equipment has mostly been transferred from Belarus to Russia to the front line, and not vice versa - from Russia to Belarus. Now there are not many Russian troops in Belarus, a little more than a thousand people, only a couple of Russian planes are stationed on Belarusian territory, and a couple of thousand Belarusian soldiers who do not really have modern equipment and weapons to pose any threat to Ukraine. But when this situation changes, we will inform Ukraine and our Ukrainian partners about it, and our contacts in the Armed Forces are keeping abreast of this matter," he said.

Franak Viačorka noted that Belarus needs much more military personnel to be involved in Russia's war against Ukraine.

"But we know firsthand that the mood within the Belarusian military is very negative about the possible involvement of the Belarusian army in the war against Ukraine. And we know that compared to 22 years ago, the morale of the Belarusian military is much worse now. I can't even imagine mobilization, in order to carry out any provocation or operation on the border with Ukraine, you need 2-3-5 times more military in the Armed Forces of Belarus, and to do this, you need to mobilize Belarusians. When it starts, it will simply cause chaos and destabilization inside the country. On the other hand, it may also give us, the democratic forces, a new window of opportunity," said the advisor to Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya.

• After the start of the operation in the Kursk region, Belarus deployed at least 1,000 troops to the Gomel region bordering Ukraine.
• On August 25, it became known that the Armed Forces of Belarus were moving a significant number of personnel to the border with Ukraine under the guise of exercises. The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry called for an end to unfriendly actions.
