Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said he wants to get in touch with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to discuss the current situation in the country as he sees a threat not only to Belarus, but Russia as well, in it.

"The aggression against Belarus is effectively developing under a scenario. I must get in touch with Putin, the president of Russia, to talk with him now. Because it is now a threat not to Belarus alone," the BelTA state news agency cited Lukashenko as saying on Saturday.
