“I directly said [about this] to the Russian authorities. And through Poland, through the Baltic states [oil supplies are possible]. There are achievements. But if we start supplying oil through Poland, we will take two threads of the Druzhba oil pipeline, which is exported by Russian oil. This is the Russians? No,” said Lukashenko.

And they begin to bargain - natural gas, oil, and so on." “We will not ask anyone for anyone. I’m tired of conducting these conversations, tired of listening,” the president said.
