Near the monument to Uladzimir Karatkevich in Kyiv, I saw the building of the Belarusian embassy. Empty, neglected, overgrown with grass. It is difficult to imagine a more painful symbol of what Lukashenka’s regime has done to relations between Belarus and Ukraine. The regime betrayed the true interests of the Belarusian people and destroyed the natural friendship between our nations in order to serve the Kremlin’s ambitions. But this is not forever. We will return Belarus — European, free, and independent. And this embassy will once again become a place of cooperation, respect, and good neighborliness between Belarusians and Ukrainians.

Yesterday in Kyiv, we officially opened the Mission of Democratic Belarus in Ukraine. This is an important step toward stronger, more systematic cooperation between democratic Belarus and Ukraine. I am grateful to Ukrainian officials, including Deputy Foreign Minister Yevhen Perebyinis, for joining us, and to everyone who helped make this Mission possible. We must do more to support Ukraine: politically, informationally, through cooperation with Ukrainian institutions, by standing with Belarusian volunteers and fighters, and by supporting Belarusians living in Ukraine. This Mission will make our work more consistent and visible. It will be a platform for dialogue, practical cooperation, and support. It will help Ukrainians know whom to work with, and Belarusians in Ukraine know where to turn. I wish Sviatlana Shatilina success as Head of the Mission, representing the democratic forces of Belarus in Ukraine. A free Belarus and a free Ukraine are part of the same future.

Great to speak today with President Karol Nawrocki on the margins of the Three Seas Summit Summit in Dubrovnik 🇭🇷. I expressed my gratitude to Poland and to the President personally – for his sustained engagement at the highest level on the case of Andrzej Poczobut, who was released today, as well as for awarding him 🇵🇱's highest state honour, the Order of the White Eagle, last year. We also discussed recent developments and next steps in our cooperation.

In Yerevan 🇦🇲, I visited the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial to honor the victims of the #ArmenianGenocide. I laid a wreath on behalf of the Belarusian people at the eternal flame — in memory of more than 1.5 million Armenians who died in the Ottoman Empire.

Belarusian military volunteers fighting for Ukraine are bravely participating in the operation in the Kursk region. I'm incredibly proud of our volunteers risking their lives to defend freedom. Ukraine’s success is a powerful source of inspiration for many Belarusians.

At the #EPC Summit, I met 🇸🇰 PM Robert Fico 🇸🇰. We discussed the importance of joint European support for both ⚪️🔴⚪️ and 🇺🇦, as well as opportunities for more cooperation between 🇸🇰 and the democratic forces of Belarus. Preserving unity is in our shared European interest.

It was a pleasure to meet 🇪🇺 HR/VP Kaja Kallas at #UNGA80. The support of our fellow Europeans gives Belarusians confidence that our struggle is not forgotten—and that our future lies with a free and democratic Europe.

Another Russian drone has crossed Belarusian airspace. The regime continues to aid Russia’s aggression, turning our sky into a launchpad for war against Ukraine. This is not the choice of the Belarusian people. We are against the war and support Ukraine's fight for freedom.

Not a typical weekend — tactical medicine training in Warsaw. With the Kalinouski Movement, we practiced life-saving skills that matter in the first critical minutes. I am thankful for this experience, for the knowledge, and for the opportunity to take this course.

Great to see 🇲🇩 President Maia Sandu at the #EPC and congratulate her in person on her party’s victory in the elections. Democratic Belarus welcomes the pro-European choice of the Moldovan people. Moldova has shown that Putin’s hybrid attacks can be successfully resisted.

Always an honor to meet 🇫🇷 Emmanuel Macron—the first President I met in 2020 and a steadfast ally. At the #EPCSummit, I thanked him for France’s leadership in supporting Belarusians and standing for freedom in Europe. There is no secure Europe without a free Belarus.

Today, the #Belarus regime has signed an agreement with Russia on the deployment of nuclear weapons. It would not only endanger the lives of Belarusians but also create a new threat against Ukraine & all of Europe. Even when they are talking about tactical nuclear weapons, most of them are still as powerful as the atomic bomb that killed 140,000 people in Hiroshima. The radioactive fallout would be much worse than the contamination that Belarusians experienced after the 1986 Chornobyl disaster. Last week, as G7 leaders gathered in Hiroshima, I urged the world to take action against this dangerous escalation. If we don’t react, then other dictators with nuclear ambitions will feel encouraged to raise the stakes. We can’t play this game, because there is only one outcome; nuclear devastation. Since the beginning of the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Putin has used his nuclear arsenal to intimidate the world. As the Russian army has proven ineffective, he is playing the last card that he has. But these threats didn’t stop the democratic world from supporting Ukraine in the fight for freedom. And we can’t let this latest piece of nuclear blackmail stop us. The deployment of any kind of nuclear weapons in Belarus is not only a violation of international commitments such as the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and the Budapest Memorandum of 1994. It also violates our non-nuclear status under the Constitution & the will of the Belarusian people. It will make Belarusians hostages to Russian imperial ambitions. It is not too late, but time is running out. I ask our partners & allies to take firm steps to prevent the deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus. I ask you to consider preventive sanctions on Russia & Lukashenka’s regime. They must know that if the deployment happens – the dictators will face devastating consequences. Belarusians deserve to live in a free, democratic & safe country. We all deserve to live in a free & safe Europe. Let’s make this come true.
