Lukashenko builds a secret smuggling empire - Break the Fake - TVP WORLD
When dictators start talking too much, they tend to reveal more than they should. And this time, Aleksander Lukashenko might have said the quiet part out loud. In a bizarre on-air moment, the Belarusian leader casually admitted something about cigarettes, borders, and a very unusual kind of “trade.” It’s not about politics — it’s about smuggling, denial, and a confession that slipped through live TV. What exactly did Lukashenko say, and why are people calling it his biggest self-own yet? Benjamin Lee breaks it down in this new episode of Break The Fake.
