Will Lukashenko and Putin create mythical "Western Ukrainian government"?

Lukashenka's visit to St. Petersburg, the latest stories about the annexation of Western Ukraine by the Poles are simply nonsense, at first glance. I would highlight several aspects that are important for our understanding of what is in the minds of these two lunatics

client/title.list_title

1. This is the first time, at least I think, that a double has been involved in a meeting of this level. The photographs of the fake Putin with the common people clearly showed this. This doesn't mean that Putin is handing over the country's governance to his doubles. It only means that Lukashenko is like slippers for him. And Lukashenko's statements confirm this.

He is ready to keep playing the fool for money. And stepping aside from our topic, I have got the impression that Lukashenko has two goals in life: to outlive Putin (physically) so that he can laugh at his grave, and then to hand over power to his favorite son, Kolya.

2. The main message of this meeting is that Belarus, together with Russia, is ready to liberate Western Ukraine from the mythical invasion of the Poles. Apparently, in the near future, some kind of Western Ukrainian government will be created to spread the story of the polonization of Ukraine. It is possible that a terrorist organization will also be created to "stop" the Polish invasion and even try to carry out some terrorist attacks on the territory of Poland.

3. It can be assumed that the peak of information spin will be in the fall and winter. Now we can assume that so far we are not talking about a major offensive from Belarus, but rather about information campaigns with minimal kinetic actions and horror stories about the Rivne NPP.

This is nothing new. We just need to be prepared for this.
