Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) analyzed the statements of the dictators of Belarus and Russia regarding the attack on the Moscow Crocus City Hall.
The self-proclaimed President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko stated that the attackers on the " Crocus City Hall” They immediately flowed to Belarus, and not to Ukraine, directly supporting the Kremlin’s narrative about the honorability of Ukraine, perhaps in order to avoid asking about those that the attackers were directing to Belarus.
It means that Lukashenka “does” same there are few obvious incentives to lie about the fact of an attack in such a manner.”
At the same time they mean: “The disclaimer about those that the attackers went straight to Belarus, obviously, to find a corner there, there may be ruinous political legacies for Lukashenka and his regime, the remains of the day’s nutrition about those, why did they think that they would be in Belarus It’s safer, and whoever, in my opinion, might be accepted there.”
Lukashenko, perhaps, would like to forget about the hypothetical links of the attackers with Belarus by saying that the Belarusian forces played an important role in his arrest. Although Lukashenka’s statement fuels the Kremlin’s tiredness, it is changing its influence before the Kremlin’s attempts to obtain non-public information about the initial plans of the attackers to press on the new one in the future.
Pensioner from the Kremlin and Other Russian planters seem to be trying to maintain consistent I will make a rhetorical line to attack Crocus, which shows that the authorities of the Russian Federation have not yet fully figured out how to accommodate their information operations with the reality of intelligence and law enforcement failures iv.
