“There is no country and nation who could feel absolutely safe for the last dozen years. Military force has once again become the main argument of the world centers for solving issues. As if there were no million losses and horrors of the First and Second World Wars. Now we are literally covered with an information wave of the so-called premonition of the third world war. There are grounds for concern,” the Belarusian leader said.
