The State Border Guard Service warns of provocations: Belarus invites Ukrainians to collect wild animals, there are no agreements
There are no significant changes on the border with Belarus. The units of the Armed Forces of Bolorussia keep about seven battalions and separate units of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the border. In the border areas, measures are carried out on engineering equipment and the use of REB facilities is recorded. Andriy Demchenko, spokesman of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, stated this in the Ukraine-Ukrinform Media Center.
“A few days ago, the border committee of Belarus allowed Ukrainians from the border areas of Rivne region to visit forests to collect wild animals. Such a decision is made unilaterally, this is a provocation. No negotiations were held on this issue. The safety of our citizens on the territory of this country remains in question,” Andriy Demchenko said.
The checkpoints will not function in this direction and the passage of citizens will not be carried out.
