Alexander Lukashenko called on the CSTO to catch up with modern technologies.
The organization should not stay away from technological processes, especially when it comes to sovereignty and national security. Alexander Lukashenko stated this at the CSTO summit in the Kremlin.
The Belarusian president drew attention to the changing nature of military conflicts: classic military operations are increasingly being replaced by digital tools of influence and information.
"Targeted hacker attacks, bot armies, the use of proxy hacker groups and the creation of cheap fakes are disproportionately cheaper than strategic bombers and cruise missiles, but they can cause serious damage," Lukashenko stressed.
According to him, all of this is intended to undermine the state internally and may be as dangerous to people as military aggression.
