John Cole to visit Belarus on September 15. Lukashenka, however, warned: there will be no "big deal"
Aliaksandr Lukashenka said this to his propagandists at the Abuz-Liasnouski training ground near Baranavichy.
When asked by one of the propagandists about the prospects of a "big deal" with the US, Lukashenka stated that "we are open". Allegedly, the Americans have lifted sanctions from Belarus and are ready to lift more. But "everyone is fixated on political prisoners", and he made it clear that their releases will happen this time too, though he couldn't resist gloating:
"Oh, for God's sake, take them. Everyone was worried: oh, Tsikhanouski was released. And where is Siarozha? We can't find him, he's useless to anyone. And now I see there - she used to shout "Give me back my husband", and now she doesn't live with her husband."
With the Americans, Lukashenka is ready to discuss issues concerning the embassy in Minsk, nuclear materials, and potash fertilizers. According to him, there's a multitude of things, not just "a deal and Trump".
"Yes, as I honestly said, I am a Trumpist, I supported Trump and so on. I see his mistakes, I tell his best friend, who is supposed to come to us on the 15th, directly about them, and I talk about it."
He can even discuss the issue of Gaza and the Council of Peace, as long as it's "not merely as scenery".
"We are ready for both a small and a big deal," said Aliaksandr Lukashenka. "If it benefits us, we do it. If it doesn't, we don't. And not because we are such heroic heroes. We know our place in this complex world. We will not do it, because it is humiliating for people and because it is not necessary. Well, sanctions are sanctions. Sanctions are a time of opportunities. Did we start producing less meat and milk? Did we start producing less equipment? Well, that's our interest," he added.
And demanded from the USA to "return 43-44 million dollars for potash, stuck in Citybank".
"This is a disgrace for the USA, and after that we will negotiate more serious things."
