Western countries must heed important warnings not to allow the war in Ukraine escalate due to its supply of weapons in the bid to defeat Vladimir Putin
A team of professionals led by a researcher and former secondary school teacher, Joshua Hoopwood, have highlighted a letter to United Nations Secretary General António Guterres on Monday, from Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.

The team studying the content of the letter, and the repeated threats from Putin’s regime of the potential for World War III, say it is important for the West and Nato to carefully monitor every step they take in this war.
In the letter of concern, Lukashenko warned that international efforts to bolster Ukraine’s security could lead to the conflict in that country expanding into another world war. He is among a group of professionals studying the events of the war, media topics, and child education.
Mr Hoopwood told The Eye Of Media.Com: It is very important that a clear message goes out to Vladimir Putin that his bullish dictatorship and unlawful invasion of Ukraine will be vigorously fought to prevent him from winning the war.

”We all know Putin is a dictator, but the West must not allow the war to escalate and potentially cause a world war. It must stay strong, united, but disciplined and with regular reviews of its involvement.
He pointed out that ”it would be irresponsible for the West and Nato to be excessive in its approach without evaluating the potential consequences of their actions”.
Hoopwood said the continuous supply of weapons and announcements of increased supply of weapons is potentially capable of escalating the war.
Call For Unity
The letter in question called on the countries of the world to unite and prevent the regional conflict in Europe from escalating into a full-scale world war!”
He said the continuous supply of weapons and announcements of increased supply of weapons is potentially capable of escalating the war .
An English translation of his advice stated that the West should ”refrain from arms supplies, from information warfare and any provocations, from inflating hate speech in the media, from promoting racism and discrimination on the grounds of national, cultural, linguistic and religious affiliation, from legalizing and sending mercenaries.” He added, “We must jointly resist restrictive trade measures.”
He called for the United Nations to play only a peacekeeping role throughout the conflict. Lukashenko also attacked Western leaders for their handling of Russia, appearing to cast blame on them for the invasion.
“The reluctance of Western countries to work to strengthen unified and indivisible security, their disrespect for legitimate interests and ignoring the concerns of other partners, primarily Russia, resulted first in trade, economic and information wars, and then provoked a heated conflict on the territory of Ukraine,” he wrote.
The United States have recently supplied billions of dollars in aid, including weapons, to Ukraine, following Russia’s widely condemned invasion.
US President Joe Biden also announced Washington will provide $800million (£613million) in new
Uk Prime Minister Boris Johnson, recently pledged a further £300million worth of weapons to Ukraine during an address to the Uk parliament earlier this month.
Concerns
There are concerns that the continuous announcements of supply of weapons could become provocative, but the need to express a solid front against Putin’s dictatorship is also high among the West United by NATO, and many observers of the war.
The question of whether the steps by NATO taken are extra or whether the objective of squashing Putin’s army, varies between people, but there are calls for a pause in some quarters for a pause in the supply of weapons to Ukraine. Those views are pitted against the drive to ensure Russia fails.
Anti-tank weapons have played a big role in weakening Russia’s offence against Ukraine, and Russia has generally been losing the war. Fears that Russian desperation could lead to the unthinkable are serious concerns for some observers, but Putin is also losing popularity in his own circles.
Russia’s isolation due to a wave of international sanctions, has affected the Russian economy and turned some of his inner circle against him.
Among the sanctions against Russia is the complete axing of technological imports, an EU moratorium on its central bank, and a ban from European airspace. With Russia’s already damaged economy, which has already been hit hard by the effects of COVID-19 , it is on its last legs, but still has nuclear weapons. Those weapons are governed by rules, even in Russia, but in a dictatorship regime like Russia, rules can often be violated.
There have been speculations that if over cornered, Russia could resort to chemical weapons.
Russia has been attacking the flow of supplies once they enter Ukraine, but there are concerns that Russia could begin to attack supplies inside NATO should they start losing badly, Russia has already lost over 30,000 soldiers in the war so far.
Track Record
Russia has a track record of attacking supply lines, but the U.S government has claimed the Kremlin hasn’t been very successful at hitting their targets.
The Pentagon spokesperson, John Kirby, at the time said that Russian forces do not have a good record of hitting their targets.
He said: “I would just remind you that their ability to target with precision has been less than advertised throughout this entire war. They are not good at precision strikes.
“The flow into the region continues at an incredible pace, and the flow of materials from the region into Ukraine also continues every single day.
Against all that drama, the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has recently warned that Donbas could be left “uninhabitable” as Russian strikes continue, also accusing Moscow of “genocide”.
Mr Zelensky said: “They want to burn the Donbas – to make it uninhabitable.”
On Friday, Mr Zelensky urged the West to provide his country with more weapons.
He said: “We need the help of our partners – above all, weapons for Ukraine. Full help, without exceptions, without limits, enough to win.”
New United Nations (UN) figures, which says 8,691 civilians have become casualties of the war.
This includes at least 3,998 civilians killed and at least 4,693 wounded.
Zelensky may want more supplies to defend his territory, but the West and Nato may have to find discretion to know when to take a pause. Continuous supplies of weapons may come at a cost of adequate supplies for the British public, and potentially escalate the war , if restraint to any necessary degree is lacking.
Areas in the UK where funding would be helpful are in no short supply, though the Uk government does pump money in many areas to support various aspect of the lives of Uk citizens.
