Russia switches off Electricity to Belarus

Well they have had 3 deadlines and not complied.
Lukashenko has played a cat and mouse game with Moscow for some time.
It increases the pressure on this guy who is known as the last communist ruler in Europe.
I dont know how he will react since he is a master at manipulating a crisis.
Russia transits both gas and oil through Belarus,and in the past Lukashenko has threatened to interfere with these supplies.
No doubt there will be some form of retaliation-but exactly what is hard to say-this guy is so unpredictable when backed into a corner.
