Belarus President 'poisoned'? Lukashenko rushed to hospital after meeting with Putin in Moscow

India TV News  

In a major development, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko, who is currently in Moscow, was rushed to the hospital amid reports of being "poisoned" after holding a crucial meeting with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin. Although there was no official confirmation from either side, Belarus's opposition leader Valery Tsepkalo, in a social media post, alleged Russia was behind Lukashenko's alleged poisoning. Further, the Belarusian 2020 presidential candidate asserted that Russia has been hiding information in order to give Putin a "clean chit" from his alleged involvement. Earlier this week, when Lukashenko met Putin, he signed a deal on Thursday formalizing the deployment of Moscow’s tactical nuclear weapons on Belarus territory, although control of the weapons remains in the Kremlin.
