Belarus’ authoritarian leader on Friday greeted U.S. Rev. Franklin Graham, who arrived in the tightly controlled country to hold the largest evangelical Christian gathering in its history.
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko asked Graham to convey warm greetings to Donald Trump and tell him that he has “reliable friends and supporters in Belarus.”
Since Trump returned to the White House, Lukashenko has released hundreds of political prisoners as part of U.S.-brokered deals that lifted some U.S. sanctions, part of the isolated leader’s efforts to improve ties with the West.
That’s weird. Is Belarus converting to protestantism? Or just a dictator being dumb?
He’s making in-roads with the Trump admin, neither of those men could care less about Christ or his teachings. This is a business meeting.
Lukashenko will do whatever Putin tells him to do. I guess now it’s to be friendly to anyone from the US
