Such an envoy, Latushka argues, could represent Belarusians during negotiations on the war in Ukraine instead of Lukashenka.
Deputy Head of the United Transitional Cabinet and head of the NAM Pavel Latushka proposes appointing an EU special envoy for Belarus.
“Is the participation of democratic forces in negotiations [on the war in Ukraine] a realistic scenario? Frankly speaking, to achieve this, we need a strong voice from our partners, and here we look to our allies—to the EU, to Poland, to Great Britain, to Ukraine, and to the US. And that is why we have developed 10 conditions that Lukashenka must fulfill if he wants to sit at this negotiating table. We propose the appointment of an EU special envoy for Belarus who would have a strong mandate based on the latest EU decisions and, perhaps, would also represent us during these negotiations,” the politician stated during the Poznań Economic Congress, reports Latushka’s Telegram channel.
During the discussion, he also reflected on the situation in Belarus in the context of European security.
“Is security for Poland or for the EU about reaching an agreement with Lukashenka or democratic change in Belarus? Definitely democratic change in Belarus, because attempts to reach an agreement with Lukashenka have already been made five times. This did not lead to strategic changes—only cosmetic ones took place, and later we had 2020. That was a terrible year of repressions, and this terrible year continues in 2026.”
Pavel Latushka also noted that Lukashenka cannot be a guarantor of security in the region:
“For the EU, as well as for Poland, it is important that Belarus is a safe, democratic, and free country. Lukashenka does not guarantee freedom and security for Poland and for the EU. He has signed so many agreements with Russia that he cannot free himself from these obligations. He signed both the military doctrine and the treaty on strategic security guarantees, which fully bind him to execute all orders coming from the Kremlin.”
