The lower house of the Belarusian parliament ratified a bill on the agreement between the republic and Russia on security guarantees within the framework of the Union State at a meeting on February 26.
Now the document must be approved by the upper house of parliament. Then it will be signed by the country's president, Alexander Lukashenko.
The agreement was signed in Minsk on December 6, 2024. The agreement is aimed at strengthening the security of Belarus and Russia within the common defense space of the Union State and consolidating mutual guarantees for the implementation of necessary measures in the event of encroachments on the security of either party.
