Statement of the United Transitional Cabinet of Belarus in Connection with the Threat of Military Escalation

The United Transitional Cabinet of Belarus notes a significant increase in threats to the security and independence of Belarus in connection with the continued involvement of the Lukashenko regime in the war against Ukraine.

Today it is vitally important for Belarusians to find paths toward achieving civil consensus and effective protection of national interests. Both the preservation of the Belarusian state and its sustainable development will depend on this.

The United Transitional Cabinet of Belarus calls upon the functional authorities of the country to cease support for Russian aggression, to begin negotiations in the format of a Round Table with representatives of the united democratic forces and civil society, with the aim of preventing Belarus from being drawn into armed confrontation, ending the internal political crisis and security crisis.

The independence of Belarus and non-participation in the war are the key elements of achieving national consensus and the foundation for the restoration of civil accord.

Long Live Belarus! Warsaw, June 21, 2026
