Lukashenko open to Trump meeting with preconditions

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has stated he is open to a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump, but only after a significant agreement has been prepared in advance. Lukashenko added that Minsk has adapted to Western sanctions and that any potential agreement should go beyond mere sanctions relief. The comments signal a conditional willingness to engage with the Trump administration, though the specific nature of a 'big deal' remains undefined. This comes amid ongoing regional tensions and Ukrainian warnings about military preparations in Belarus.
