The usurper will be thrown out as an increasingly toxic cadre.
It is worth considering the "subjectness of Lukashenka," who has lost control over the armed forces, writes the Cynic Telegram channel.
Yesterday, Lukashenka voiced that troops would leave the territory of Belarus after Putin and Lukashenka met one-on-one. Then Peskov said he could not give an exact date for the troops' withdrawal. Everything will be negotiated individually.
What kind of signal is this? Lukashenka has completely lost control over the armed forces that have entered Belarus as part of the exercises. He has no control over their number, movements, operations, or even the date of their departure. Moreover, Moscow twice leaked to the West confirming that "Lukashenka has lost his mind" and that "it is in control of the situation in Belarus".
This signal of Lukashenka's lack of subjectness was necessary in order to close the possibility for Lukashenka to make a multi-vector U-turn in favor of the West or China.
Moscow demanded confirmation from the West about Lukashenka's ability to take control of the entire vertical.
Yesterday, Lukashenko confirmed that he would not be able to withdraw Russian troops from the territory of Belarus without Moscow's desire. This was a signal: "If anything, save us".
The regime realizes that if the Kremlin gains control over the security apparatus, Lukashenka will face a forced integration and then be expelled as an increasingly toxic cadre.
