Lukashenko proposes selling an anti-air defense system

"We can do this in a very short period of time," Lukashenko said during a speech before the National Assembly. "And you can live peacefully without looking around you to check on what the rest of the world will do tomorrow, if they're going to help or conspire against you," he added.
