Minsk and Belarus have been NATO targets for over 15 years, says political scientist

Minsk and Belarus have been designated as targets in NATO documents for over 15 years, according to political scientist Pyotr Petrovsky.

'Until 2014, even NATO experts conducted so-called simulation exercises that considered a preemptive nuclear strike on Minsk. What does this show? Not only is this an inhumane and unlawful act, but for NATO, an attack on a peaceful city and a peaceful country that is not involved in any conflicts has become a mere bargaining chip... They don’t care. Just as they don’t care about the residents of Ukraine, Iran, the Middle East, and other countries,' Petrovsky said during the 'Club of Editors' program.
