Lukashenko `Tricked Us,' Exiled Belarus Opposition Leader Says
Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko “bears full responsibility” for the humanitarian disaster unfolding in Ukraine, according to exiled opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya. “He tricked us into this war. He is an accomplice of Russia,” Tsikhanouskaya said on Bloomberg Television, Friday.
