Ukrainian MP: Lukashenko Has Turned Into A Doll

He has no real independence.

Is Lukashenko playing the role of a "scenery" for the Kremlin's information special operations? Such a question Charter97.org asked the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine from the party "Servant of the People" Oleg Dunda:

- I would call it differently. Lukashenko is a reincarnation of Kadyrov. Only with a Belarusian accent. In fact, not de jure, but de facto.

If you look at things realistically, and not at documents, legal status and formal signs, Belarus and Lukashenko are not much different from Chechnya and Kadyrov. Both have formal signs of statehood: their own armed forces, local laws. Lukashenko, like Kadyrov, has local laws. But in fact, they are part of the big Russian empire, and the status of these leaders - both Lukashenko and Kadyrov - depends entirely on Moscow, on Putin. In a sense, Putin uses them as additional tools for his tasks.

Conditionally, Kadyrov is a tool for promoting interests or a negotiator in the Gulf and the Muslim world, with a certain set of fake independence. And Minsk and Lukashenko are constantly trying to be used as a negotiator with Ukraine and the West, which is always offering something: a platform for negotiations, an exchange, or some other initiatives. But in fact, they are puppets like the rest of the Russian regions.
