President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has refuted speculation that because of the detention in Minsk of more than 30 Russians, relations between Minsk and Moscow "absolutno got corrupted", stressing that "no Wagner" on them will not be affected.
As for the prospects (of relations with Russia – ed.) that we (allegedly – ed.) is absolutely soured relations with Russia, - are mistaken. The President of Russia will make the decision, and no media, Wagner and so on affect it not. It is the quintessence, the essence of our conversation with the President of Russia," - said Lukashenko.
