Why on earth would Belarus waste effort 'destabilising' the EU?
The EU's doing a grand job of destabilising itself.

'The Department of Health has confirmed to me that £100,000,000 was the amount due from 'chargeable overseas visitors' in 2022/23 for NHS treatment.
The amount actually collected? Just £32,000,000.
It's a total racket, and the British taxpayer is footing the bill'

For those with an entrepreneurial mindset, the new 24 hour Port of Dover Kayak vending machine could be a nice little earner for picking up migrants.
