Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko has invited Wagner Group mercenaries to his country to train its military
Lukashenko alluded to the invitation in a speech Friday dedicated to Belarus’ Independence Day, according to state news agency Belta. “Unfortunately, they are not here,” Lukashenko said. “And if their instructors, as I already told them, come and pass on combat experience to us, we will accept this experience.” The invite from Lukashenko comes just a week after the Belarusian leader was credited with defusing an armed insurrection by Wagner forces against Moscow.
“Thus, another hotbed of tension is being created, another stronghold is being created for the aggression of the most aggressive country in the world and, unfortunately, the most powerful – the United States,” he said. Where is Prigozhin? Earlier this week, the Belarusian leader claimed he had convinced Putin not to “destroy” the Wagner group and its chief Prigozhin, whom he said would have been “crushed like a bug” had Wagner troops continued their advance to the Russian capital.
