The United States is considering inviting Alexander Lukashenko to meet with President Donald Trump in Washington or at his Mar-a-Lago residence. A final decision on this issue has not yet been made.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is reported by the Financial Times<\/a> .<\/p>\n

According to the publication, discussions about a possible invitation have been ongoing for several months as part of attempts to improve relations with Belarus.<\/p>\n

US Special Envoy John Cole confirmed that relevant negotiations are underway, but a final decision has not yet been made.<\/p>\n

“There’s still a lot of work to be done before this goal is achieved. But I think we’ll get there,” said John Cole.<\/p>\n

On March 19, Alexander Lukashenko held talks with an American delegation led by John Cole in Minsk.<\/p>\n

On the same day, according to the Viasna human rights center, Lukashenko pardoned 250 political prisoners, of whom 15 were deported and 235 remained in Belarus.<\/p>\n

After the talks, Lukashenko said that the parties discussed issues of bilateral relations, the release of political prisoners, and sanctions policy.<\/p>\n

“So what about me, will I resist? I accept it normally,” said Alexander Lukashenko.<\/p>\n

He also stated his willingness to work on possible agreements with the United States.<\/p>\n

“Tell Donald that I agree to work out this big deal, to prepare it,” said Alexander Lukashenko.<\/p>\n

It is noted that John Cole already visited Belarus on September 11, 2025, during which he reported on the US decision to lift sanctions on Belavia Airlines.<\/p>\n

By the way, during his trips to Belarus, US President’s special representative John Cole<\/a> discussed not only political issues with self-proclaimed President Alexander Lukashenko, but also the topic of weight loss and an American drug for obesity.<\/p>\n
