Lukashenko announced plans to selectively mobilize army units.

Alexander Lukashenko met with Belarusian Defense Minister Viktor Khrenin and outlined new objectives:

From now on, we will selectively mobilize units to prepare them for war. God willing, we can avoid it.

Lukashenko emphasized that the country is committed to peace. But the army must be prepared for combat. To the west are NATO troops in Poland and Lithuania. To the south is Ukraine. The only calm area is the eastern border with Russia.

As a reminder, combat readiness checks in Belarus continued throughout the winter and spring. Large-scale snap exercises, mobilization of units, and threat rehearsals were conducted. Lukashenko justified these preparations as follows:

We see this with our own eyes today, when on the borders of our native Belarus, the heirs of the Nazis are once again trying to form an armored fist for a thrust to the East.

Given that NATO troops conduct exercises along the Belarusian border with enviable regularity, Minsk's reaction is understandable. The president specifically mentioned the issue drones:

Let's be honest, we haven't yet learned to react to these incursions 100% and haven't learned to destroy them 100%.

It's telling that the president is personally overseeing this process. Meetings with Khrenin, reports from Security Council Secretary Volfovich, and ongoing monitoring of any identified shortcomings.

Hmm! Ah, that's a wake-up call. But who's it for?

[Foggy Dew]

A call to a friend—wow, what a valuable ally I am... Everyone's trying to sit on two chairs, but they're moving away. So he'll carry out a mobilization—who said they'll shoot down the intruders? That doesn't require partisans, but regular air defense crews; they need to be harassed, not the reservists.
In short, it's just a show.

[Ivan Vasilievich 282]

It's strange why they're downvoting this guy. He said everything correctly: a strict peace has been maintained between Ukraine and Belarus for all four years. Ukraine is not a threat to Belarus, and the point of these actions is simply to show off their "allied" fate.

[Umpteenth]

She opened the way for our troops. How is she different from the Balts?

[Ivan Vasilievich 282]

She opened the passage for our troops

Nevertheless, Ukrainians They don't "remember," and Lukashenko is merely feigning a willingness to "take part." Let's just say they both don't give a damn.

And they will have their own "Upper Lars".

[topol717]

We've always had partisans, but instead of retraining, they went fishing. I don't know how it is in Belarus. And then, for retraining, you need a uniform, you need a lot of other things, and what about pay, especially for pieceworkers? What if you're self-employed?

The AGL did the right thing by releasing people who were not loyal to the country to Poland and Lithuania.
Why keep people by force, especially those dissatisfied with the authorities?
Interestingly, many have already returned. There's nothing good in foreign lands; they'll always be different from Poles or Lithuanians there. Poles take a long time to obtain residence permits, and the jobs are poorly paid. Programmers, yes, have it easier. But even their workforce is shrinking due to AI.
Now, most people in Belarus, looking at Ukraine, understand that the events that occurred in 2020 after the elections and the rise to power of Western supporters would have made Belarus a second Ukraine.

Oh! This is a very graphic description of how the Russian leadership is reacting to attacks on the Crimean road. With such a "response," it's not far to a "difficult decision" and "I ask for your understanding." All in the name of the "spirit of Anchorage."

Ah, Prilepin's garbage dump? You might as well quote Dozhd from Wikipedia.

[g_ae]

Well, judging by how, under the benevolent gaze of the Supreme Commander, the Russian oil industry and Black Sea infrastructure are being carried all the way to the Urals, and this in the fifth year of endless victories and the "planned" progress of the North-Eastern Front, the "garbage dump" might not be so wrong. And if Dozhd' (Rain) says that grass is green and water is wet, would you also say he's lying?

[Foggy Dew]

Wow! Did they just take everything out, or is there anything left? In Tuapse, for example, there's Kazakh oil, they're exporting it, and in Leningrad, the damage was also close to zero. They took everything out, you say? Well, if you read such garbage, then yes.

[g_ae]

Well, if you only listen to Peskov or Konashenkov, then no.

You're paid by the letter or by the post. You're a very prolific comrade, and your comrades are no less so. But it's utterly foolish to call black white and white black, especially since everything is right before our eyes, and people read and watch not only Central Television but also the internet. If things were different, our drones would be frolicking around Lviv and Uzhgorod, not theirs around Dzhankoy and Mariupol. Not to mention the First World War books that haven't yet visited a rare city in European Russia. When there's nothing else to write about, they bring in losers like you to justify their own mistakes, and in all of them!

I find it very amusing how you and your fellow security guards, after the oil industry is hit by debris, immediately write it off: "That's not ours, we don't need that one at all, the damage to the third one is close to zero, all fruit on the internet."

[Cool90]

Well, apparently, the American oil industry is being taken out too (SHOT: the second oil refinery in two weeks exploded in Texas and was caught on video), and yesterday a Mexican oil industry was taken out

In the first quarter of 2026, the ports of Ust-Luga and Primorsk increased oil shipments, despite drone attacks in late March. fontanka.ru +1

The oil refineries are built by people who aren't idiots, and it's hard to take them out.

[Nastia makarova]

Who cares about this oil industry? You yourselves asked for the sales tap to the West to be shut off.

And what were they supposed to shoot down? When? And who was supposed to report it to you? Interesting!

Listen, you dummy. What do you even know about who tried to do it and what they did? I can tell you countless stories about shooting down stray Ukrainian drones near Gomel, but for people like you, it's like talking shit. And stop trying to start a global mess here. If life is boring, go to the LBS or the Belarusian-Ukrainian border. And scream at the top of your lungs that no one is doing anything, and you're the only one who knows the whole truth.

Such things on LBS???)))) No way))) He will lead from the 4th row deep in the rear)))))

There's no need to let anyone back in. "If she's dead, she's dead." Why have a potential enemy behind us? Let's be honest—potential Vlasovites.
