Belarusian ruler Alexander Lukashenko has hinted at easing tensions on the border with Ukraine.<\/p>\n

During a visit to troops in the border region, he emphasized the withdrawal of Ukrainian units from the region, according to the state agency BelTA.<\/p>\n

“Now we have no complications with the Ukrainians, and I hope that there won’t be any,” he was quoted as saying by BelTA.<\/p>\n

At the same time, Lukashenko announced the withdrawal of units that had been deployed to the Ukrainian-Belarusian border in recent weeks.<\/p>\n

Lukashenko had recently reinforced the border units due to alleged troop gatherings on the Ukrainian side of the common border and alleged provocations.<\/p>\n

Kiev, on the other hand, claimed that Ukrainian units had merely expanded their defence positions along the border.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Belarus authorized the deployment of Russian units from its territory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
