MINSK (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 22nd February, 2019) Minsk will have to join Moscow in considering response measures in case Washington deploys intermediate-range missiles in Europe, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said Friday.

"I am afraid that the Americans will seize the moment after leaving [the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty] and deploy missiles in Europe. We will also be affected. Therefore, we will need to think about the response measures together with Russia," Lukashenko said, as cited by the local Belta news agency.
