The strongman leader of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, on Tuesday said his authoritarian country would benefit from combat experience of Wagner fighters exiled to the ex-Soviet state after a failed uprising in Russia.
“If their commanders come to us and help us … (this is) experience. They’ve been through it. They’ll tell you about weapons: which ones worked well, which ones didn’t. And tactics, and weapons, and how to attack, how to defend. This is priceless,” Lukashenko, who offered to take in Wagner fighters, said during a meeting with his defence minister, according to state media.
