MINSK, May 28. /TASS/. State Secretary of the Belarusian Security Council Alexander Volfovich believes Europe is openly preparing for war, according to remarks he made at an international meeting of senior officials responsible for security issues in Moscow, as reported by the BelTA news agency.
He warned that the likelihood of further escalation and the emergence of new hotspots of tension remains high. "This is clearly demonstrated by the ongoing militarization and continued preparations for war. By portraying Russia and Belarus as alleged threats to regional security, Europe is seriously considering the possibility of war beginning by 2030," Volfovich said.
"This is reflected in the West’s strategic planning documents. Until then, they expect the conflict in Ukraine to continue, with Kiev receiving weapons and other support," he added.
Volfovich also said that the foundations of the so-called liberal world order have been irreversibly undermined.
"The current global situation is evolving under the influence of structural changes in the world order, accompanied by an unprecedented level of instability and the strengthening of multipolarity. Recent events in key regions of the world have definitively undermined the foundations of the so-called liberal world order," he stressed.
