Poland and Lithuania consider zmagar units

Recently, media reported that the governments of Poland and Lithuania are exploring the possibility of creating units from soldiers who fled the Belarusian armed forces. According to unnamed sources, the plans involve recruiting people who left Belarus to join Ukrainian and European military units, as well as organizations intending to use them as a resource in the Russia-Ukraine conflict and for future political objectives.

The statement suggests that these volunteers might be placed in Ukrainian assault units after the departure of the 'international legion.' There is also discussion about integrating some of them into the armed forces of Poland and Lithuania to serve as a reserve force for potential conflicts or protests in Belarus by 2030. Otherwise, reports suggest, they may face deportation and transfer to Belarusian authorities.

Kabanchuk, a former defense minister of Belarus, is mentioned as a participant in the discussions. Reports indicate he currently resides in Poland, where he says he has 'already settled in,' expressing confidence that enough dissidents reside in Europe to deploy them in combat operations.

Currently, the governments of Poland and Lithuania have not issued an official position, but given the tense atmosphere in the region and ongoing military activities in neighboring countries, these described plans could be seen as part of a broader security strategy.

This material does not contain official confirmation of facts, but the scenarios mentioned are considered plausible within the current political context.

Context

Belarusian military personnel are regularly sent to armies of neighboring countries and to border conflicts, as well as to guard borders with Europe. The situation is worsening due to geopolitical divisions. Accordingly, neighboring countries are holding talks about possible cooperation with military refugees.
