‘Lukashenka Playing Too Long’
LI QIANG

The visit of the Chinese prime minister does not bode well for the Belarusian dictator.

Minsk is preparing for the visit of Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China Li Qiang. The visit is scheduled for August 22-23, he'll arrive in Belarus right after an official visit to Russia.

‘Lukashists will try to present this event as an unprecedented success of their diplomacy, a breakthrough in international isolation. They will try to ask China for money.

The Lukashists' hopes for Chinese help are in vain. The Kursk breakthrough of the AFU has finally shown that Ukraine cannot be taken by force. Chinese trade continues to suffer due to the disruption of logistics and sanctions imposed on the regimes. The main route of China's ‘One Belt, One Road’ to Europe has been disrupted.

Chinese companies are forced to cut trade with Russia and Belarus for fear of being hit by Western sanctions.

Lukashenka has been playing too long in confronting the West and is not fulfilling the main function imposed on him by China, to be a stable transshipment point.

China will require the dictators to make concessions for a speedy reconciliation with Ukraine and the West,’ a Charter97.org reader shared his opinion.
