Lukashenko predicts end of war within months
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said the war in Ukraine could end in the coming months, arguing that all sides have run out of strength and resources. He made the remarks on 3 November at the IV Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security, calling the forecast his personal view ("Nikt nie ma już sił". Aleksander Łukaszenko przewiduje zakończenie wojny w Ukrainie – Onet) (Лукашенко вважає, що війна в Україні завершиться найближчими місяцями: "Втомилися всі" – Українська правда).
Exhaustion as the stated reason
Lukashenko said that no one has the strength or resources left to continue fighting and that everyone is tired of the conflict (Лукашенко заявив про близьке завершення війни в Україні і похвалив Трампа – UNIAN). He did not specify which parties he had in mind, nor did he outline the terms under which hostilities might stop (Лукашенко заговорив про кінець війни в Україні: коли, за його словами, настане мир – TSN) (Лукашенко заявил, что война в Украине в ближайшие месяцы закончится – Zerkalo).
Claims about 2022
One Ukrainian outlet, citing his remarks, reported that Lukashenko also claimed peace could have been reached as early as 2022 and blamed Kyiv's allies for preventing it. No other outlet in the coverage reported this claim, and it was not supported by details in the available reports.
Context: Komyshuvakha strike
The announcement came a day after a Russian aerial bomb attack on a school in Komyshuvakha, Zaporizhzhia region, where humanitarian aid was being distributed. Officials reported 29 people killed and 48 missing, with police officers and rescue workers among the dead and injured. Lukashenko's comments did not address the attack in the reports available.
