Dictator Reveals Putin's Wet Dream for a 'New World Order'

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko delivered a bizarre letter to the United Nations Secretary General António Guterres arguing that the UN and other world leaders should essentially let Russia do as it pleases in Ukraine, and deflecting blame for the consequences of the war, as Russian forces continue to wage war in the country for the 89th day.

He urged other governments stop providing weapons as the war in Ukraine carries on, attempting to paint the supply of defensive weapons as a provocative behavior, ignoring the fact that Russia started the war in Ukraine.

“Together and each in our role, we can do a lot today: refrain from the supply of weapons,” Lukashenko said, adding all countries can refrain “from information warfare and any provocations, from inflating hate speech in the media, from encouraging racism and discrimination based on national, cultural, linguistic and religious affiliation, from legalization and direction of mercenaries.”

Lukashenko urged the Secretary General to consider instituting a “new world order” in which all members of the international community have “security guarantees,” because it would be in the UN's interest to “prevent the conflict from becoming protracted with devastating consequences.”

The Belarusian president, who has been aiding Putin’s war in Ukraine since even before it began—with senior U.S. officials warning Belarus appears to be operating hand-in-hand with Russia—also sought to make Belarus look like a misunderstood victim, not an instigator.

something smells and it's ain't Ukraine nor the West. I think Putin is losing it.

Ukraine to date is not going to give up their lands to Putin, and again Putin talking "nuclear".

Justice matters.

I think he's worried that his people will decide they don't want to be a vassal state to Russia any more.
There simply isn't any upside to it, and Russia is weak now, so maybe it's time for Lukashenko to get the heave ho.
The longer this war goes on, the more dangerous it is to him.
