Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko revealed that Russian President Vladimir Putin personally vetoed a planned strike on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s office located on Bankova Street in Kyiv. The proposed attack involved the use of the Oreshnik system, described as a medium-range or hypersonic missile. Lukashenko emphasized that Putin categorically refused the strike, stating "Under no circumstances" would it be carried out. This disclosure was made during a press conference and highlights Putin's direct intervention to prevent the attack. Additionally, Lukashenko shared anecdotes about his interactions with former U.S. President Donald Trump, noting that pressure tactics do not work on Putin and that he is a "normal guy" who should be engaged in dialogue. Separately, Ukrainian President Zelensky was reported to have reacted with laughter when questioned about the "Druzhba" oil pipeline and its relationship with Hungary, suggesting that the pipeline's future depends on Hungary's stance amid ongoing conflict.
