Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said on Thursday that Moscow and Minsk have "enough forces" to deliver goods to Kaliningrad "without any wars and tensions.", APA reports citing Breaking the News.

During a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, the Belarusian president criticized Lithuanian policy that follows the European Union's steps on imposing sanctions on Russia, shifting the blame on the bloc for limiting goods transfers to Kaliningrad.

Previously, Moscow warned of a "tough" response to Vilnius' decision to halt the transit sanctioned goods being transported by rail from Russia to the region.
