Military cooperation between the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation is a key element of their multi-level integration.

Military cooperation between Belarus and the People’s Republic of China dates back to the 1990s, when Belarus, disposing of its surplus weaponry, began supplying Soviet-style equipment to China.

The development of pragmatic and purposeful steps of interaction with Belarusian democratic forces should become part of a broader strategy of Ukraine towards Belarus, which would allow effective response to both urgent and long-term challenges from the Lukashenko’s regime.
