  3.  @Test7017  not exactly true COVID cases are on the rise in Belarus with over 4000 deaths, and this assumes accurate reporting, which may not be the case.

  4.  @johnflamenco1973  Putin is using this as a restriction for further advances into the Ukraine. This is whereas see just how much of a paper tiger the EU really is in practice. Putin may also be using Belarus as a means to get Germany to approve and start using North stream 2 gas pipeline. Once Germany, and the rest of the EU is dependent of Russian gas flows, Putin will be able to do just about anything he wants to in Europe, include invading the Ukraine. The plan is clever, in as much as Putin is able to blame Belarus dictator Lukashenko, if the plan goes wrong. Better still, began appear to rebuke Lukashenko for threating to turn off the existing gas supply, making Putin appear as the strong rescuer of the EU. Again getting his wish for Germany to approve the second russian pipeline. Putin's long term goal is to rebuild the sphere of influence of the old USSR, but better. Invading the countries that were once under the Moscow's influence. You can be sure Lukashenko, is just doing what he has been told to do, were it not the case he would not dare to threaten to cut off Russian gas supplies to the EU, damaging russian interests. If he did, it would be Belarus that would be threatened with russian invasion.

  5.  @Test7017  fortunately we are not in the EU anymore. Particularly as the EU is now talking about an emergency military force, and the ability to go to war without unanimous approval of all member states. A call I have been expecting. The EU will turn back the economic migrants, and they will become a problem for Belarus,which can expect yet more sanctions to be imposed.
